    Excellent video indeed. One comment though, the attenuator you inserted is just Cu 0.1 mm, not hybrid. Hybrid one looks different.

      As long as the attenuation factor is correct, nothing else really matters, especially since we aren't saving these scans. For total accuracy for the video's sake, I should have chosen the non-hybrid option, but the attenuation factor is programmed to change to the correct value automatically for the hybrid option (I have to choose the attenuation factor with the non-hybrid option, and I haven't bothered to try changing it to be correct automatically), so I have gotten into the habit of choosing the hybrid option to save a bit of time. Habits are hard to break! I'll try to do better in future videos though.

      @@IAMMDiffractionFacility Thank you for a very detailed reply. I think you are already super thorough in your videos. Totally get why you did what you did.
      It would be great though to see some vids on treating more complex patterns, such as cements to which you referred to few times and/or mixtures of minerals. All and all - fantastic resource, especially for PANalytical and Highscore users!

    Michael, great video as always. One question: how do you get the first derivative of the z-scan to appear?

      @IAMMDiffractionFacility  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Honestly, I didn't do anything to make it appear. I wonder if it is a matter of Data Collector version. I'm sorry I can't be of more help on this! Regardless, I'm betting it is still performing the same function even if you can't see the curve.

      @@IAMMDiffractionFacility thanks for the reply. It is just easier to find the inflection point if it would visualizes the first derivative :)

    Hi Michael, your videos are really helpful! Can I request something? Can you please also make a training video on XRD scan of single crystal thin films (on, off-axis, and RSM scan) using Panalytical Empyrean?

      Thank you! While a good idea for a video, our Panalytical X'Pert3 MRD is set up for epitaxial thin film work as we have better prefix modules for those samples (a four-bounce monochromator, rocking curve optic, triple axis analyzer, etc.). This is a video I'd like to make though! The tough part is always finding the time given my other work responsibilities, which is why I post new videos far more slowly than I would like :/

      @@IAMMDiffractionFacility I understand that. Thanks for your reply and yes it would be really helpful if you get some small amount of time to make that video. Your explanations are really great and helped me to understand the XRD tool way better!
