Hai all,
I am facing the difficulty to obtain hkl parameters for structure oriented mixed crystals.
As the suggestion from the experts simply you can use GSAS or FULLPROF software to evaluate those a, b, c values. But, my confusion under this answer is "How do we can say the space group of particular crystal structure what things are finalize those structure belongs to this kinda space groups (pnma, R3c, pbnm etc.,).
Kindly, help me for my crucial research (CaO/SrO/TiO2/BaO/CuO doped ZnO)
If your new material is polycrystalline then you will not be able to extract the data for crystal parameters. You need to work with a pure phase, get high quality peak positions, use the software to do 'indexing' in order to find the lattice parameters and possible space groups. In order to find the correct space group you will need much better data and go down the route of full structure solution. But this will need pure material - not mixtures. If your material is oriented you face another challenge in that peaks may be missing and you will not even find the lattice parameters. Tough task...
That's a BB scan, it's more helpfull if u cud post a raw data.
U also can use GIXRD to identify the phase in case of thin film.
