Dear James,

I'm not sure these are quite what you are after, but I'm suggesting them anyway. There were several papers from Gordon Barr about non-parametric methods:


SNAP-1D: a computer program for qualitative and quantitative powder diffraction pattern analysis using the full pattern profile
Barr, G., Gilmore, C. J., Paisley, J., J. Appl. Cryst. (2004). 37, 665–668

A longer reading list is here: http://www2.chem.gla.ac.uk/snap/PolySNAP_index.html

You can find similar functionality in the panalytical software:

"The HighScore suite" Thomas Degen, Mustapha Sadki, Egbert Bron, Uwe König and Gwilherm Nénert. Powder Diffraction, http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/S0885715614000840

A related development would be "XRD-CT". This is computed tomography via "powder" diffraction by raster scanning a small beam across a large sample (and rotating).

J. Appl. Cryst. (2014). 47, 1107-1117    [ doi:10.1107/S1600576714008218 ]
XRDUA: crystalline phase distribution maps by two-dimensional scanning and tomographic (micro) X-ray powder diffraction
W. De Nolf, F. Vanmeert and K. Janssens

It seems that the colours in resulting pictures are "semi-quantitative", but perhaps not in the sense you had in mind.

All the best,

Jon

Hello All,

I had the following request from a client:

"I am looking for examples of statistics used on semi-quantitative data, i.e. comparing XRD results of multiple samples. Do you have any recommendations or know of any papers that clearly explain their statistical methods? In so many papers, it is glossed over. I have a pretty good handle on my stats, but would prefer to see what other have done with XRD datasets."

Can anyone help with this.?  I do not know of any of the top of my head.

Thanks in advance,
James Talbot
