An automatic procedure to calibrate angular-dispersive monochromatic diffraction instruments has been developed at the Daresbury Synchrotron Radiation Source. The procedure uses a macro Language to control the powder diffraction instruments to locate Bragg reflections and perform peak-centre refinement from a standard reference material. The information obtained is used to refine the wavelength of the radiation used and the angular offset of the detector arm. The concept and implementation of the new software are described with applications to demonstrate its viability. The results of a reliability and accuracy study are also presented.

Diffraction imaging using x-ray topography (XRT) and x-ray multiple diffraction (XRMD) provide valuable tools for examining the growth defects in crystals and the distributions from ideal lattice symmetry (microcrystallography). The topographic x-ray multiple diffraction microprobe (TMDM) combines the complementary aspects of both techniques enabling XRT and XRMD studies within the same instrument providing a useful resource for the structural characterization of materials that are not very stable in vacuum and electron beam environments. The design of the TMDM instrument is described together with data taken on GaAs (001) and potassium dihydrogen phosphate (001).
