Powder dictionary (pdCIF) version 1.0.1

Category PD_PHASE

Definition:

   This section contains a description of the crystalline phases
   contributing to the powder diffraction data set. Note that if
   multiple-phase Rietveld or other structural analysis is
   performed, the structural results will be placed in different
   data blocks, using CIF entries from the core CIF dictionary.

   The _pd_phase_block_id entry points to the CIF block with
   structural parameters for each crystalline phase. The
   _pd_phase_id serves to link to _pd_refln_phase_id, which is
   used to label peaks by phase.
