w sali

The goal of the course is to learn the basics of crystallography.

Lecture:

1. Crystal definitions and examples. Crystal symmetry, symmetry operations, 2D and 3D lattices, crystallographic systems, Bravais lattices.

2. Lattice point, lattice direction, lattice plane, indices - notation. Real lattice - reciprocal lattice, geometric relation.

3. Symmetry elements - transformation matrix. Characteristics of simple and complex symmetry elements. Stereographic projection - point groups.

4. Translational symmetry elements, space groups, crystallographic tables, laws of crystallography.

5. X-ray generation and detection, characteristics, interaction with matter.

6. Diffraction of X-rays on crystals. Bragg-Wulf law. Preliminary analysis of powder diffractograms.

7. Structure factor, atomic scattering factor, systematic extinction rules, characteristic of selected simple structures of elements and compounds.
