Reliable and accurate phase analysis – EVA
Since its first release, EVA's search/match module is generally appreciated as the most reliable and most accurate tool for phase identification. Correspondingly, EVA performed best in an international Search-Match Round Robin (Le Meins et al., 2002, www.cristal.org/smrr). Since then numerous improvements have further differentiated EVA from conventional software for phase analysis:
- Simultaneous phase identification (search / match) and accurate quantitative phase analysis based on RIRs (reference intensity ratios)
- Can be performed manually or fully automatic
- Support of the spiking method to put all quantitative results on an absolute scale
- Highly sophisticated residual search with respect to already identified phases, thus greatly improving analysis of minor phases
- Support of Variable Counting Time (VCT) data for highly accurate trace phase analysis thanks to significantly decreased Lower Limits of Detection (LLoD)
- Support of ICDD PDF2/PDF4+/PDF4 Minerals/PDF4 Organics and COD reference databases
- Simultaneous search in multiple reference databases
- Grouping of candidate patterns phases to handle the ever-increasing number of similar or nearly identical reference database entries
