Crystallization and Materials Science of Modern Artificial and Natural Crystals

Authored by Elena Borisenko and Nikolai Kolesnikov, this huge PDF is a comprehensive package on crystallization, especially dealing with artificial and natural crystals. Important matters include analyses of thermal barrier coatings, nucleation and crystal growth in phase-separated glasses, and the development of novel metamaterials. The research paper has further examined the influence of amino acid additives on ammonium dihydrogen phosphate crystal growth. It further discusses the biomineralization process of biological systems such as the special types of crystal formations within an organism and then delves deeper into biomimetic crystallization techniques whereby macromolecular additives are used along with the implications of crystal growth for health protection. This resource is very useful for the researcher and practitioner in materials science, offering insights into the complexities of crystallization processes and their applications in high technology and biomaterials.

Crystal Structure Analysis Lecture Notes

Lecture notes by Dr. Peter Mueller on crystal structure analysis through X-ray diffraction techniques include key topics like principles of symmetry and space groups, geometry of diffraction, and computation of structure factors. The lecture goes on to discuss problems such as the phase problem and direct and Patterson techniques to solve it. It also encompasses electron density maps and refinement of structures. Practical issues like growing good-quality crystals and powder diffraction methods are addressed, besides the limitations of X-ray diffraction. The notes are a treasure trove of knowledge on the basics of crystallography and its applications combined with insight into structure databases.
