I am doing Rietveld Refinement using fullprof. But my Chi2 value is low but Rexp and Rwp value is too high. So what is the problem here? Can anyone solve this problem ?
Shovon Mondal. From your image Chi2≈ 2.56. Rwp and Rexp these values are both high, which usually indicates poor counting statistics, noisy data, or instrumental issues, not necessarily a bad structural model or poor fit.
A low Chi² with high Rexp and Rwp values during Rietveld refinement in FullProf typically indicates a poor model fit, likely due to incorrect initial parameters, an inadequate phase model, or improper background correction. Check the crystal structure definition, instrumental broadening parameters, and try manually adjusting the background or using a more suitable peak model (e.g., Pseudo-Voigt).
