Abstract

A computer program for analysing two-component interstratified structures by two different Fourier transform methods is described. The first method consists of the calculation of the X-ray diffraction intensity function, and in the second one (direct method) the distribution function of interlayer distances is calculated. The programs have been written in compiled GWBASIC for an Olivetti M-24 microcomputer (MS-DOS operating system), and they may also be run on any IBM compatible personal computer. As an example, this program is applied for the analysis of a chlorite-smectite interstratified mineral.
