Possibilities of the X-ray Diffraction Data Processing Method for Detecting Reflections with Intensity Below the Background Noise Component

Materials Science 2025-11-25 v1

Abstract

The values of the signal-to-noise ratio are determined, at which the method of processing X-ray diffraction data reveals reflections with intensity less than the noise component of the background. The possibilities of the method are demonstrated on weak reflections of α\alpha-quartz. The method of processing X-ray diffraction data makes it possible to increase the possibilities of X-ray phase analysis in determining the qualitative phase composition of multiphase materials with a small (down to 0.10.1 wt. \%) content of several (up to eight) phases.
