An intensity evaluation method: EVAL-14

A. J. M. Duisenberg, L. M. J. Kroon-Batenburg and A. M. M. Schreurs

Abstract: A reflection intensity integration method is presented based upon ab initio calculation of three-dimensional (xy[omega]) reflection boundaries from a few physical crystal and instrument parameters. It is especially useful in challenging circumstances, such as the case of a crystal that is far from spherical, anisotropic mosaicity, [alpha]1[alpha]2 peak splitting, interference from close neighbours, twin lattices or satellite reflections, and the case of streaks from modulated structures, all of which may frustrate the customary profile-learning and -fitting procedures. The method, called EVAL-14, has been implemented and extensively tested on a Bruker Nonius KappaCCD diffractometer.

Keywords: intensity evaluation; profile analysis; area detector; imaging plate.
