A novel position-sensitive detector (PSD) is described which has been used on the STOE focusing monochromatic beam diffractometer. The anode wire of the PSD coincides with the focusing circle of the diffractometer and covers a range of Δ2θ = 60°. Within a few minutes, data were collected from polycrystalline transmission samples and capillaries, and with a furnace as an attachment to the diffractometer phase transitions and solid-state reactions were studied. Some of the results are discussed in this paper, the characteristics of the PSD are described and compared with conventional counters.
