Crystal Structure Analysis and Crystal Chemistry

- Theory of single-crystal diffraction
- Structure factor calculations
- Thermal vibration, anisotropic displacements, eigenvalue calculation
- Anomalous dispersion
- Fourier syntheses
- Patterson function
- Direct methods
- Least squares theory
- Structure solution and refinement using SHELX program
- Crystal chemical calculations

The students will be able to determine the crystal structure of minerals and synthetic crystalline compounds, and to understand the structure/property relationships.
