Misture NYS College of Ceramics at Alfred University, Alfred, NY An empirical evaluation of powder diffraction data collected using multilayer optics was performed by determining the peak shapes as a function of angle and performing Rietveld refinements. Data collected using a parabolic multilayer optic in the incident beam and either a long Soller collimator or a flat multilayer optic in the diffracted beam were evaluated. NIST Standard Reference Material SRM64OC (silicon) was used in the analysis. The results demonstrate that parallel beam data can be easily modeled using Pearson VII or pseudo-voigt profiles and the Rietveld refinements are reliable. The profile shapes obtained using two multilayer optics are unusual and warrant further investigation. INTRODUCTION Incorporating multilayer optics in laboratory x-ray instruments has revolutionized many diffraction and scattering measurements [l-9]. Parallel beam optics are particularly attractive for powder diffraction when compared to Bragg-Brentano geometry, because of the insensitivity to systematic specimen displacement errors [ 1,6]. The critical component in a parallel beam system is a parabolically curved graded multilayer optic that harnesses some -0.5 degree of divergence from a line source and creates a -1 x 10 mm parallel beam by Bragg diffraction. The efficiency of multilayer optics is generally much higher than traditional crystal optics, and the parallel beam has a divergence on the order of 110 arcsec (0.03 ). Multilayer optics, therefore, can be coupled with crystal optics on sealed tube systems and still provide reasonable count times. Although several investigations of the performance of multilayer optics have been performed, the literature is lacking a study of the applicability of the data for Rietveld refinement of powder diffraction data. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE A Siemens D500 diffractometer with a Cu tube was modified to contain an Osmic Max-Flux@ G013-BA parabolic multilayer optic on the incident beam side. The Max-Flux@ optic was housed in a standard Huber monochromator housing after some minor modification. The Max- Flux@ optic was mounted antiparallel to the anode, or in other words, on the same side of the beam as the anode. This mounting configuration causes a lower angle of incidence on the small d-spacing side of the optic to balance the beam divergence across the optic.

(a) Incident beam parabolic multilayer Max-Flux@ optic and Soller collimator in the diffracted beam; (b) Flat multilayer optic in the diffracted beam. 1 Yhe diffracted-beam side was equipped with either standard optics or another multilayer. For the standard configuration, a long Soller collimator or parallel beam attachment was fitted. The divergence of the collimator used was 0.15, and scintillation detector was fitted directly behind the collimator. No monochromator crystal was used in this configuration because the Max-Flux@ optic reduces the Cu K/3 radiation. The multilayer optic used on the diffracted beam side is a flat non-graded multilayer manufactured by Osmic, Inc., with dimensions of -3 x 7 cm and a d-spacing of 0.38 nm. In addition to the multilayer optics, the instrument included 3 axial divergence collimators on the incident and diffracted beam sides, as well as multiple adjustable slits to limit the beam. All experiments were performed using the full 0.8 x 12 mm beam and coupled 0-28 geometry. Step I

The specimen used for the data reported here was NIST SRM64OC silicon that was side-drifted into a specimen holder with dimensions of 15 by 25 mm and a thickness of 1.5 mm. The peak profiles vs. angle were determined using Shadow [ 1 l] to tit each profile individually with split pseudo-voigt profiles. Rietveld analysis was performed using GSAS [ 121. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Figure 1 contains schematics of the optical configurations. Figures 2 and 3 show the results of fitting pseudo-voigt profiles to the two diffraction patterns. As shown in Fig. 2, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) follows the familiar trend of increasing FWHM with diffraction angle. Note that the FWHM when using the Soller collimator is some 1.5 times greater than the data from the system with two multilayer optics in the low to mid-angle region. This is the expected result because the divergence of the flat optic is approximately three times smaller than that of the Soller collimator. The resolution of the measurement with two multilayer optics is

[lo]. In contrast, the measurement with a Soller collimator in the diffracted beam provides data comparable to a typical Bragg-Brentano measurement incorporating 1 divergence slits and a graphite diffracted-beam monochromator. Figure 3 shows the pseudo-voigt mixing parameters as a function of angle corresponding to the fitted profiles. For the measurement using the Soller collimator, Fig. 3a, the mixing parameter increases monatonically with angle as the profiles become more Lorentzian. There is no significant difference in line shape between the low and high-angle sides. As shown in Fig. 3b, however, the low and high angle line shapes are different for the data collected with two multilayer optics. Figure 3b shows that the mixing parameters are different below and above The origin of this difference remains unclear, but it must be recognized when using symmetrical profiles to describe the line shapes. Additional analysis is underway to further quantify the profile shapes. The Rietveld refinements were approached using the strategy of fixing known values and 0.6 &.

This approach was adopted to ensure that the refinements could be used to evaluate the instrument without producing unphysical values of variables that tend to correlate. The lattice parameters were fixed to the NIST certified values, and the parameters refined were limited to: the Cagliotti profile width parameters, Lorentzian components of size/strain broadening, transparency of the specimen, a simple asymmetry correction, polarization, diffractometer zero shift, and isotropic thermal parameters. Note in particular that the specimen displacement correction in GSAS was not refined, and the only systematic error refined was the zero shift. Figure 4 and Table 1 show the results of the refinements. Although the weighted residuals are slightly high at 12 and 17%, the 2 values are reasonable. As indicated by the difference pattern in Fig. 4, there is clearly an inadequacy in the profile shapes for describing the data.
6 Copyright (c)jcpds-international Centre for Diffraction Data 2002, Advances in X-ray Analysis, Volume Nonetheless, there are no significant problems with either refinement, and even the isotropic thermal parameters are reliable. Table 1 and Fig. 3b indicate that the profile shapes present a minor problem when refining data collected using two multilayer optics in the beam path. Additional work is underway to better characterize the peak shapes in this optical configuration. SUMMARY Powder diffraction data obtained using multilayer optics are similar enough to traditional optics that a common Rietveld analysis package can model the data with reasonable accuracy. No significant problems were encountered when refining NIST SRM64OC standard silicon powder data, which indicates that using multilayer optics does not introduce any problematic instrumental characteristics. The profile shapes used in the analysis do not model the observed profiles exactly, and further work is underway to quantify the profile shapes from systems incorporating two multilayers.
