Main Window

 

 

The main window of EdPCR program contains a menu bar and a toolbar with the usual buttons. A brief information is obtained when you left the mouse on a button of the toolbar.

 

The information of the PCR file is distributed in seven buttons:

 

General

Define a general information as title, type of job: Rietveld, Profile Matching, Simulating Annealing.

 

Patterns

Define patterns information: types of profile, background, geometry aspects...

 

Phases

Define Phase information: Names, contribution to patterns, symmetry…

 

Refinement

This button is the acces to the mos important part of EdPCR: editing structural and profile parameters and conditions of refinement. Atom positions, profile shape parameters, magnetic moments, microstructural parameters, etc … are accessible through this button.

 

Constraints

Define constrains for refinable parameters. You can modify, add and delete contrains relations easily by using mouse selection and clicks.

 

Box / Restraints

Define restrains relations or box limits on refinable parameters.

 

Output

Access to the selection of output options for each phase and pattern. This allows selecting output files: Fourier, hkl-lists, files for other programs, etc.
