Resources

We have developed some useful research tools and career development contents.

Software

These software packages were developed for handling and analyzing large datasets from high-pressure experiments and are free for non-commercial use.

PeakPo

Data-analysis environment for peak identification, peak fitting, and unit-cell refinement with 1D and 2D powder diffraction data, designed for quick navigation through large synchrotron datasets.

RamPo

Desktop application for processing Raman spectroscopy data, adapted from PeakPo and refocused for high-pressure Raman experiments.

Pytheos

Flexible tools for pressure-scale calculations, pressure conversion, and fitting pressure-volume and pressure-volume-temperature datasets to a range of equations and combinations.

Dioptas-Batch-GUI

Standalone GUI for automated batch processing of X-ray diffraction image files using Dioptas.

Calculator-for-H-in-FeHx

Notebook for calculating hydrogen content in FeHx alloys from alloy volume expansion using the DFT-based approach described in Piet et al. (2023, GRL).

UnitCellJ

A Jupyter notebook version of the original UnitCell app, providing a robust outlier-finding scheme for improved unit-cell fitting.

BM-Spline

Demonstrates fast and accurate inverse Birch-Murnaghan equation fitting using a universal spline-function approach.

JCPDSTools

Utilities to create JCPDS files from CIFs, edit existing JCPDS files, and check them for errors to support stable use with PeakPo and Dioptas.

PRuby

A lightweight utility for calculating pressure from ruby fluorescence peak positions, designed to respond quickly and run easily from portable drives.

Gist documents

Notes, coding references, workflows, and smaller technical documents are also available through GitHub Gists.
