Vol. H, ch. 3.5, pp. 282-287 [ doi:10.1107/97809553602060000950 ] Abstract Methods for the fast extraction of all the peak intensities from a complete powder-diffraction pattern are discussed. The story of the modern whole-powder-pattern decomposition methods (the so-called Pawley and Le Bail methods) is provided together with a list of their main application areas. The conclusion is that the elaboration of these methods represented an essential step towards the possibility to solve more easily, if not routinely, a crystal structure from the diffraction pattern of a powder sample, i.e. from one-dimensional data instead of single-crystal three-dimensional data. |
