Almost 50 years have passed since the famous papers of Hugo Rietveld from the late sixties where he describes a method for the refinement of crystal structures from neutron powder diffraction data. Soon after, the potential of the method for laboratory X-ray powder diffraction was discovered. Although the method is now widely accepted, there are still many pitfalls in the theoretical understanding and in practical daily use.

This book closes the gap with a theoretical introduction for each chapter followed by a practical approach. The flexible macro type language of the Topas Rietveld software can be considered as the defacto standard.

Industry Reviews

Dinnebier, Leineweber and Evans have done an outstanding job of explaining the fundamentals of the method and summarizing the exciting new developments. With this book, the reader can find answers to two questions: what information is stored in a powder diffraction pattern, and how to extract that information using TOPAS. I particularly like this combination of theory and practice and I wholeheartedly recommend this excellent read to any user of the powder diffraction method.
