Powder3D: An easy to use program for data reduction and graphical presentation of large numbers of powder diffraction patterns

摘要

The presented software facilitates data reduction of multiple powder diffraction patterns. Many operations are automated for the application to huge sets of patterns collected during diffraction experiments in dependence of time, temperature, pressure and composition. The features include basic data reduction procedures, such as background reduction, K-α stripping, smoothing and Le Bail fitting. Many file formats are supported to provide interoperability with GSAS, Fullprof and Crysfire (amongst others).
