Very useful and quite easily solves the problem of not able to find a structure in rietveld refinement. Thank You.

Hi Michael, thank you for this information. It was very useful, however I was not able to perform the refinement has my version of the software (3.0.5) is unable to carried out Rietveld refinement possibly because it only has structure fit, Pawley fit etc on the Fitting mode options, do have any suggestion to solve this issue? Thank you

I'm surprised that you don't have any default Rietveld option. I suggest watching one of my other videos where you can see how to create your own automatic refinement strategies (kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpetZ4WIjLSbiLc). In the video, I believe I set up a more complicated refinement strategy. If you would like to begin with the basic strategy that was in my version of HighScore Plus for as long as I have been here (I'm not sure if my predecessor created it or Panalytical did), then see below for the parameters required to create it. What is written below might look complicated, but it should be straightforward once you watch the other video. Let me know if you have any questions/problems. Scale Factor - Switch off after use = false, Used = true Flat Background - Switch off after use = false, Used = true More background - No. of additional... = 2, Switch off after use = false, Used = true, Use 1/X background term = true Specimen displacement - Switch off after use = false, Used = true Lattice Parameters - Minimum weight percent = 5, Switch off after use = false, Used = true Caglioti W - Minimum weight percent = 5, Switch off after use = false, Used = true

Nicely described. Thank you very much but I did not get the option "Skip patterns without structure data". How can I solve this problem?

My apologies for the long delay, I was sick and then on vacation. It may be that your version simply doesn't have that option. I'm not overly familiar with older versions, so I'm not sure. While it is a nice option to have, it isn't required. You can still perform refinements (assuming you have HighScore Plus and not just HighScore, and assuming I understand their package features correctly), you'll just need to make sure that the pattern files have atomic coordinates.

So they aren't in a database you have, you can't find them in a free database (such as Crystallography Open Database), and you can't find them in a journal article? I'm a bit at a loss as to what to tell you in that case. If you can make a single crystal of your material, you could try single crystal diffraction.

@IAMMDiffractionFacility

That all depends upon the atomic structure of your phase. I can't give you a position for those that works in all situations.

Hi, Many thanks for your clear explanation. I have difficulty to search unit cell. when I execute cell search I got error: 'Not enough valid peaks for indexing' Could you please how to solve that?
@IAMMDiffractionFacility
@IAMMDiffractionFacility Жыл бұрын
I don't typically analyze data that way (I just run search/matches to find crystal structures that match my samples), but I have a little experience with it. Unfortunately, to my knowledge, the problem is exactly as it sounds. You need more peaks in your diffraction pattern. I recommend collecting data to as high of 2theta as you can to get as many peaks as you can.

HI my material (MoS2) isnt showing up in the COD database. Any suggestions?
@IAMMDiffractionFacility

I found multiple entries in the COD database. I entered Mo and S in the "1 to 8 elements" row, and then I entered 2 and 2 in the "Number of distinct elements min and max" row. Let me know if you still have trouble.

Why did you not include O and its atomic coordinates? What if I had 4e Wyckoff positions, should I enter 4 sets of coordinates? Thanks in advance!

Hi Michael, I am using a vesion 3.0 when i try phase quantification, i dont see the components popping up on the left corner of the plot. Also, the refinement control tab doesnt show options like yours does. I am stuck after the phase indentification step. I use a COD database and donot have aPDF4 or PDF 2. I also donot see the options in search match to skip patterns without structure data. Is it a version thing or other? Thanks

Hmmm, you are the third person recently who has reached out to me with problems performing phase quantification using the COD database and version 3 of HighScore Plus. I have neither of those items, so it is hard for me to say if it is a problem with the database, HighScore, or something else. I assume you have tried to convert a pattern to a phase, but it doesn't appear in the Refinement Control tab, right?

Hi, Michael! Thanks for the video! Another problem that I am facing is that when I click "Show pattern" the program freezes. Any suggestions on what it could be? Thank you.
@IAMMDiffractionFacility
@IAMMDiffractionFacility 3 жыл бұрын
Wow, that sounds like an annoying problem...unfortunately, I do not have any suggestions on how to fix it as I have never run into that problem. My only suggestion would be to click the box next to "Skip patterns without structure data" from the 00:03:31 time stamp. That way, every candidate pattern should have the necessary atomic position information for refinement, and you won't have to click "Show pattern" to check if that information is present. I wish I could be more help :/ Good luck though, and let me know if you have any other questions!

Hi Michael I have a multi phase system I did follow your instructions using CIF files even my pdf cards have atom coordinates. I inserted my CIF files for both phases I could fit one phase but the other CIF file didn't work and CIF files have strucure data. The option which is manually enter the coordinates gave me same error

Unfortunately, if you don't have a database and it isn't in the COD, I'm not sure where else to look. One option would be to find a journal article that tells you information such as space group, lattice parameter, and atomic positions. If you can find that, you can build your own phase in HighScore Plus that you can then refine. I wish I could be of more help!
@IAMMDiffractionFacility

There is another option...there is another online database called the ICSD (Inorganic Crystal Structure Database). I'm pretty sure it isn't free, but if your institution has a license with them, you can go to the website and download any .cif files that they have. If you are at a university, it may be worth checking to see if you have access to the ICSD.
