Simple tools to handle powder XRD (and XRD) data

Installation

pip install powerxrd

Usage

On your Terminal ("command line"), copy-paste the following lines:

cd Desktop   		# go to your Desktop
mkdir pxrd		# create a folder called pxrd

cd pxrd 		# go inside that folder
touch example.py  	# create example.py file
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/andrewrgarcia/powerxrd/main/sample1.xy	# download sample1.xy file

Plots from tests/test_module

Code shows basic application of this module. On a blank Python file, type the following:

import powerxrd as xrd
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

def test_backsub():
    
    data = xrd.Data('sample1.xy').importfile()
    chart = xrd.Chart(*data)

    chart.emission_lines(show=True)
    plt.plot(*data,label='no backsub')
    plt.plot(*chart.backsub(),label='backsub')
    plt.xlabel('2 $\\theta$')
    plt.legend()
    plt.show()

def test_sch():
    
    data = xrd.Data('sample1.xy').importfile()
    chart = xrd.Chart(*data)

    chart.backsub(tol=1.0,show=True)
    chart.SchPeak(show=True,xrange=[18,22])
