Re: [sdpd] refinement of the occupation in FULLPROF



Dear Zhen-Hua Liang,

this problem has already been discussed several times on the list (or was 
it on the Rietveld mailing list ?).
A description of the solution to this problem can be found in J.-M. 
Joubert, R. Cerný, M. Latroche, A. Percheron-Guégan and K. Yvon, J. Appl. 
Crystallogr., 31 (1998) 327-332.
If using Fullprof you should work on the real number of atoms and not SOF 
as described in your message (ie occupancy numbers on site 4e should be 
twice those on site 2a).
If using variables numbers 1 and 2 (you have two unknows in your case since 
the total number of atoms is known), you get the following with the trick 
of introducing a supplementary fictive atom on the third site:

Ta1             1.766
                 11.00
Nb1             0.234
                 -11.00
Ta2             3.304
                 21.00
Nb2             0.696
                 -21.00
Ta3             1.482
                 -11.00
Nb3             2.498
                 11.00
Ta3             0.01
                 -21.00
Nb3             0.01
                 21.00

With best regards
