Is there any link between ICDS (inorganic crystal structure database), ICDD (International Centre for Diffraction Data) and JCPDS (Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards)?
Because right now I'm using X'pert Highscore Plus software. Do you the data below is enough for searching?
PANalytical database version number: 2.3
Database type: ICSDDB
Database name: ICSD Database FIZ Karlsruhe 2009-2
Total number of Reference Patterns: 124335
Number of User Reference Patterns: 0
Number of Subfiles: 30
Read-only Attribute set: No
JCPDS is the old name of ICDD, so there is no difference except that the database under JCPDS name is most likely very old and does not contain recent results. The PDF-2/4 database supported by ICDD includes the structure data from ICSD as a subset. Also it contains the experimental powder patterns that fulfil certain criteria of quality but the structure of the corresponding phases may be unsolved. This also means that in many cases the same measurement is listed in PDF twice: as a high-quality experimental pattern and as calculated from the ICSD structure data.
To answer your second question, yes, usually the data from ICSD is enough. But there are still some phases with unsolved crystal structure and those can be only found in PDF. Also, PDF-4 contains a lot of additional information such as physical properties or raw diffraction data.
Yes, I totally agree with Prof. Alexander. Almost, he gave all the answer about ur queries.
The full ICDD database PDF-4 includes not only the "JCPDS" database that became the ICDD database called the PDF (powder diffraction file), but also includes data from the ICSD database, the NIST database, the LPF database, and I think also the CSD.
Also there is the free COD database available at crystallography.net.

No more JCPDS.

If you that possible can you sand me the database pls

Best regret.
H. Abdelkader, you appear to be asking for an illegal copyright infringement - basically, "Please send me a stolen copy of this." Don't do that!
Maybe, on the other hand, by "the database" you did not mean one of the paid databases. COD is free, but you shold download it yourself, as it is about 5 GB in sie.
