Fundamentals of Crystallography

Download or read book Fundamentals of Crystallography written by Carmelo Giacovazzo and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2002 with total page 860 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years crystallographic techniques have found applications in a wide range of subjects, and these applications in turn have led to exciting developments in the field of crystallography itself. This completely revised text offers a rigorous treatment of the theory and describes experimental applications in many fields: crystal symmetry, crystallographic computing, X-ray diffraction, crystal structure solution, mineral and inorganic crystal chemistry, protein crystallography, crystallography of real crystals, and crystal physics. A set of pedagogical tools on CD-ROM has been added to this new edition.
