Using XRD analysis it is easy to find and match for a known compound using some software such as MDI JADE-5,6, 6.5 or 9 etc. But how can I do the Rietveld refinement for a compound?
The rietveld refinement is always performed on known compounds. You should have identified the phases present in your pattern, search for their cif files and perform the structural refinement. In fact this procedure is called refinement that starts from a literature structural model.

I had heard that in Fullprof software Rietveld refinement can be done. I had tried that but couldn't get success coz don't know how to operate that software. I also want to ask you to give link for MDI JADE 9 if possible.
