This modul should deeply introduce into prepartion methods and special characterisation and working techniques of solid state chemistry. Problems occuring during solid state preparations (Thermodynamic, Defects, Kinetic, Metastability) together with classic and modern synthesis methods (solid-solid, phase transitions, precursor meterials, sol-gel, hydrothermal reactions etc.) will be explained and discussed.

After finishing the lecture the students should be theroretically able:
• to name and use differnt kinds of solid state synthesis methods;
• to do X-ray and spectroscopic phase identifications;
• to valide the use of analytical methods to answer solid state specific open questions.
