About Course

This Chemical Crystallography course would highlight the concepts and applications of the widely used experimental technique of X-ray crystallography.

They could take the students through the lane of crystallographic symmetry to the structure determination and refinement of crystal structures using x-ray diffraction.

Any experimental organic or inorganic chemist would be benefited from this course.

INTENDED AUDIENCE: Ph.D. students and 2nd-year M.Sc students
