Abstract

Recently some of the above authors determined the structure of an unsolved organic compound employing X-rays from a Synchrotron, an Imaging Plate, and a large radius camera. It would be more desirable if the high quality powder diffaction data could be obtained by a diffractometer or a camera of laboratory use. Therefore a multimode X-ray powder diffractometer which can be used for various experimental geometries such as Bragg-Brentano mode, Guinier mode and parallel beam mode was constructed in order to find the highest resolution geometry. In this paper wc present the results of the measurements employing these three modes.
