Suppose there are two XRD instruments with resolution/FWHM (A) 0.030 & (B) 0.30 @ two theta ~ 350 (assume these Instrument FWHM are calculated by measuring same NIST SRM powder at two instruments in range10-1400). Also Instrument resolution file (IRF) are made using FullProf software in 2 theta range 10-1400.
Now a nano-crystallite ~50nm (or strained material) powder XRD performed at both instruments A & B and contribution of respective Instrument (IRF's) are subtracted.
Then measurements with two instruments (A & B) give
(1) size or strain value comparable but not equal? if yes, how?
(2) size or strain value obtained in two cases EQUAL after removing instrument resolution? If yes, how?
(3) If size or strain value obtained in two cases differ significantly, then which one give better result compared to other (although respective instrument contribution is removed from both cases)? Why?
(4) Other options?
