Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM) of X-ray Diffraction Lines

Full width at half maximum (FWHM) of X-ray diffraction lines can be broadened in some cases, for instance, FWHM was greater than 1° because the existence of a non-homogeneous film composition gave a distribution in unit-cell parameters in TiSix [1].
