RietveldToTensor: Program for Processing Powder X-Ray Diffraction Data under Variable Conditions

Abstract

The RietveldToTensor program is designed to study crystal lattice deformations using the Rietveld method from the X-ray powder diffraction data gathered under varying physical and chemical conditions. Using the program, it is possible to determine the tensor of thermal expansion, compressibility, or chemical deformations of the material. The program runs on the Microsoft Windows 7 and higher platforms.
