Crystallization and Materials Science of Modern Artificial and Natural Crystals
Authored by Elena Borisenko and Nikolai Kolesnikov, this huge PDF is a comprehensive package on crystallization, especially dealing with artificial and natural crystals. Important matters include analyses of thermal barrier coatings, nucleation and crystal growth in phase-separated glasses, and the development of novel metamaterials. The research paper has further examined the influence of amino acid additives on ammonium dihydrogen phosphate crystal growth. It further discusses the biomineralization process of biological systems such as the special types of crystal formations within an organism and then delves deeper into biomimetic crystallization techniques whereby macromolecular additives are used along with the implications of crystal growth for health protection. This resource is very useful for the researcher and practitioner in materials science, offering insights into the complexities of crystallization processes and their applications in high technology and biomaterials.

Interpretation of crystal structure determinations
X-ray crystallography and the methods of structure determination. Its coverage-from crystallization to diffraction techniques, and eventually to symmetry analysis-will tackle the subject in a step-by-step and an organized manner that provides a clear insight into complex matters. Some critical concepts include intramolecular and intermolecular geometry, thermal motion analysis, and hydrogen bonding. It covers very advanced topics, like powder diffraction and graph sets, making this note a very valuable resource for students and researchers who conduct work in crystallography. This note is very valuable because it offers practical insight into the interpretation and validation of crystal structures that give those seeking to deepen their knowledge in structural chemistry and material sciences some incredible value.

Crystal Structure Analysis Lecture Notes
Lecture notes by Dr. Peter Mueller on crystal structure analysis through X-ray diffraction techniques include key topics like principles of symmetry and space groups, geometry of diffraction, and computation of structure factors. The lecture goes on to discuss problems such as the phase problem and direct and Patterson techniques to solve it. It also encompasses electron density maps and refinement of structures. Practical issues like growing good-quality crystals and powder diffraction methods are addressed, besides the limitations of X-ray diffraction. The notes are a treasure trove of knowledge on the basics of crystallography and its applications combined with insight into structure databases.
