CHEM 258 - Crystallography, Diffraction, and Scattering Methods

Type of Course: Lecture
This course will examine the determination of structure in crystalline biochemical, inorganic, and organic materials through diffraction methods. The effects of scattering on matter and symmetry in solids will be explored. Diffraction and scattering techniques used to characterize non-crystalline materials or measure and characterize dynamics in materials, such as small angle scattering and quasi-elastic neutron scattering, will also be covered.

Prerequisites: CHEM 260  or PHYS 131 , or permission.
