Theory teaching
Single crystal investigation. Reflection goniometer. Goniometer head. Laue method. Oscillation and reflection methods. Weissenberg method. Precession method. Modern automatic single crystal X-ray diffractometers. Instrument coordination system. Orientation matrix. An experiment planning and processing with a point detector. An experiment planning and processing with a two-dimensional detectors (CCD and IP). X-ray data collection strategy. Intensity measurements. Diffraction data correction (reduction). Practical teaching
Practical exercises are closely connected to lectures. One seminar work is planed to be realized. |
