38. It was not possible to obtain phase compositions in multiphase specimens from the structure refinement procedure because of too severe correlations between scale factors and compositions and/or occupation parameters. The close similarity between the shape of the scattering curves of Bi and Sb (Ref. 27) will then imply that the structure of a single phase in a multiphase specimen can be refined equally well, with any linear combination of scattering factors. Phase fractions were refined with a fixing the phase compositions at the values obtained from the estimation performed according to Fig. 2.
