Abstract

Integrated intensities of Bragg reflections of CdO, PbS and MnS have been measured at room temperature using an x-ray powder diffractometer. From a least square treatment of the intensity data the mean Debye-Waller factor, the mean amplitude of vibration and the Debye temperature have been evaluated. Calculations were made using scattering factors pertaining to neutral atoms as well as doubly ionised ions. The results from the two sets of calculations agreed within limits of errors.
