Crystalline Size and Microstrain - Williamson Hall Plot XRD

In this tutorial, you will learn to determine crystalline size and microstrain through the Williamson-Hall plot using X-ray diffraction (XRD). Import the XRD data in the origin software, perform peak fitting to all the peaks in the XRD diffractogram using a suitable peak function, and get the values of peak center and full width at half maximum (FWHM). Follow the given steps in the tutorial and calculate the X and Y axes. Plot the data and finally perform the linear fitting. The reciprocal of the y-intercept will provide you with the mean crystalline size, and the slope corresponds to the microstrain. Dive into crystallography, material science, XRD analysis, strain measurement, and research techniques.
