Abstract

Jackson Laboratory is using computer searching of the powder diffraction file on an “in-house” IBM 365/65 computer for about 1000 searches per year. This paper will discuss our experiences with the search program.

A Philips Automatic Powder Diffractometer (APD), modified to communicate with an XDS Sigma 5 computer collects the data. A program in the Sigma 5 provides both hard copy output and a computer deck of punched cards for input to the JCPDS search program.

The JCPDS search program is indispensable for our large volume of samples . The majority of these samples are corrosion products which generally have “broad peaks, and frequently, preferred orientation.
