Introduction to Crystallography: Lecture 1 — Introduction

A series of lectures and handout notes given by Dr. Cora Lind for her Chem 4980/6850/8850: X-ray Crystallography course at the University of Toledo (Ohio). These lectures introduce concepts in crystallography, such as the lattice, symmetry, single-crystal and powder diffraction, crystal structure determination and refinement.

This lecture introduces crystallography, including the history and generation of x-rays. (Note that refractive optics for x-rays are used at the APS, in contrast to what is mentioned in the lecture).

actually i kinda agree. I mean it's so clear from here on in. I will never look at crystollagraphy the same way. I just became more interested thanks to this vid. And i just became inspired to work my way up to the synchrotron level. :)

This is very good activity going on youtube...the way she is delivering the lecture is outstanding....and most of all she is making it simple and understandable....it would be better to upload more lectures related to this topic and others....
