Geometrical Problems with a Position Sensitive Detector Employed on a Diffractometer, Including its Use in the Measurement of Stress.

Abstract

Defocusing errors associated with the use of a straight one-dimensional position sensitive detector on a powder diffractometer are examined. At high angles, the error is less than the resolution of currently available detectors for x-rays. (Author)
