Abstract

The principle of the method that we proposed two years ago (1) to correct the matrix effects in quantitative diffractometry is briefly recalled and recent improvements are described. Some examples taken in geological field illustrate its possibilities.

A new field of application has been explored : thanks to a combination of this method with background measurement, a semi-quantitative estimation of the amount of amorphous material is made possible in any sample.

This correction technique can be used with any regular diffractometer : for this purpose we simply need to add a second measuring channel, the characteristics of which are given.

Finally we describe briefly the complementary electronics which have been designed in order to fully automate the apparatus, from the insertion of the samples to the printing of the results.
