Non-Spherical
Electron Densities
Using Invarioms



Focusing on the use of invarioms, tabulated non-spherical scattering factors available for a wide variety of chemical environments, Dr. Birger Dittrich of Georg-August-Universität Göttingen discusses how to get more information from conventional single-crystal X-ray diffraction structural analyses.

High-Pressure
Crystallography




Dr. Francesca Fabbiani of Georg-August-Universität Göttingen takes you through the steps for performing a high-pressure single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment with a diamond-anvil cell (DAC). You will learn DAC loading techniques and useful strategies for data collection, data reduction, and structure refinement.

Advanced Crystallography -- Publication of
Crystal Structures




Publication of crystal structures is often a researcher's least favorite task. This 90-min webinar will help. It describes the steps required to prepare crystal structures for publication in chemical and crystallographic journals, including collection of high-quality intensity data, common refinement problems, data evaluation, error analysis, preparation of CIF files, and the use of CIF-checking programs.
