摘要: Abstract To refine amorphous structures like crystalline ones is impossible. This statement needs now some reconsideration in the case of silica glass. Starting with a microstrained model deriving from α-carnegieite structure, atomic coordinates refinements by Rietveld method prove to be possible. The credibility study supported simultaneous fit neutron and X-ray diffraction data. agreement R χ factors are best ever obtained small-size built exclusively [SiO 4 ] tetrahedra linked corners. However it concluded that ‘best’ remains insufficient.
