Background Models

When all the phases present were identified, we can quantify their volume fraction in the analyzed volume similarly to the way the Rietveld-method is used for phase analysis in XRD. A whole profile fitting is used in ProcessDifraction, modeling background and peak-shapes, and fitting the shape parameters, thermal parameters and volume fractions. Since the kinematic approximation is used for calculating the electron diffraction intensities, the grain size of both phases should be below 10 nm (as a rule of...

On the basis of data compiled, E. Meszaros (1978) proposes model background concentrations for different part of rural and remote areas of Europe, as tabulated in Table 13. One can see that the S02 level may be as high as IS fig m 3, while the sulfate concentration ranges from 0.3 to 10.5 /igm 3 STP. The values given agree reasonably well with data gained in North America, as discussed by the same author. 

For all of the tools mentioned, proper application requires the knowledge of the physical and modelling background together with that on the steps mentioned in this chapter, and engineering insight into the adaptronic system to be developed.
