crystallography

listen to the pronunciation of crystallography
English - English
The experimental science of determining the arrangement of atoms in solids
The study of crystals
{n} the science of crystalization
Branch of science that deals with discerning the arrangement and bonding of atoms in crystalline solids and with the geometric structure of crystal lattices. Classically, the optical properties of crystals were of value in mineralogy and chemistry for the identification of substances. Modern crystallography is largely based on the analysis of the diffraction of X rays by crystals acting as optical gratings. Chemists are able to determine the internal structures and bonding arrangements of minerals and molecules using X-ray crystallography, including the structures of large complex molecules such as proteins and DNA
{i} study of crystals
The doctrine or science of crystallization, teaching the system of forms among crystals, their structure, and their methods of formation
A discourse or treatise on crystallization
the branch of science that studies the formation and structure of crystals
X-ray crystallography
A technique in which the patterns formed by the diffraction of X-rays on passing through a crystalline substance yield information on the lattice structure of the crystal, and the molecular structure of the substance
crystallographer
A person skilled in crystallography
crystallographer
{i} specialist in crystal research and crystal structures
crystallographer
One who describes crystals, or the manner of their formation; one versed in crystallography
x-ray crystallography
The study of crystal structure by means of x-ray diffraction
