International Tables for Crystallography
| The Rietveld method International Tables for Crystallography (2006). Vol. C, ch. 8.6, pp. 710-712 [ doi:10.1107/97809553602060000614 ] Abstract An overview of the Rietveld method of analysing powder diffraction data, in which the crystal structure is refined by fitting the entire profile of the diffraction pattern to a calculated profile, is provided. The basic theory of Rietveld refinement is described and some problems that may lead to failure of the method are discussed. |
