Scope

 

 

The 8th Workshop on Structural Analysis of Aperiodic Crystals continues a series of workshops on the structure determination of incommensurate crystals at the University of Bayreuth. An overview will be provided of the methods of structural analysis of incommensurately modulated crystals and composite crystals. Lectures will cover the basic principles of the superspace approach as well as recent developments on modulation functions and charge flipping.

Participants will have the opportunity to practice structural analysis in superspace with the computer programs Superflip and JANA2006 (written by V. Petricek, M. Dusek and L. Palatinus, Prague). A step-by-step tutorial will guide you through structure determination, symmetry analysis, structure refinement and t-plots for crystal-chemical analysis of selected examples of modulated structures and composite crystals. Your own data sets will be welcome, too.

Regarding the computer course, please bring your own notebook with you!

The number of participants will be limited to 30.
