Applications: The Multiple-Detector System for the powder diffractometer B2 (HASYLAB / DESY)
During testing different applications were carried out:
- Si (NBS 640b) standard to check the peak profiles and intensities (flat specimen, capillary)
- LaB6 standard to check the peak profiles and intensities, calibration (flat specimen)
- Si (NBS 640b) standard + NaCl + Al2O3 to compare peak profiles and intensities of the different detectors (capillary)
- Al2O3 NIST standard, intensity standard
- PbSO4 to check the resolution
- CeO2 (SRM 674a) at the wavelengths 2.2Å, 2.16Å, 2.11Å, 1.54Å to determinate the absorption correction terms f´ and f" at the L3 absorption edge
- Mn3Al2Ge3O12 + 50 % diamond at the wavelengths 1.93Å, 1.9Å, 1.88Å, 1.21Å to determinate the absorption correction terms f´ and f" at the K absorption edge
- alpha-quartz at different wavelengths to check the resolution and to compare the performance of the MDS with the former single detector system
- Sr6Rh5O15 at wavelengths of 0.76Å and 0.89Å, Sr6BP5O20 at a wavelength of 1.2Å
