Abstract

This work describes and applies the Rietveld Method for the refinement of a crystalline structure. The Rietveld Method consists on a theoretical adjustment of the diffraction pattern using a model including both structural and experimental factors. The initial reference values of the parameters are modified adjusting the complete profile of the powder diffraction pattern of our sample.
