What is X-Ray Crystallography? X-ray crystallography is a powerful analytical technique used to determine the atomic and molecular structure of crystalline materials. It involves directing a beam of X ...

The X-ray Crystallography Center was fully renovated in November 2007 and houses a single-crystal X-ray diffraction system, a brand-new Bruker D8 VENTURE diffractometer, providing X-ray diffraction ...

Inside the Findings That Shaped Materials Science takes a closer look at some of those turning points - the ideas, lab ...

Arizona State University researcher Petra Fromme has been awarded the 2021 Christian B. Anfinsen Award in honor of her contribution to the field of protein research. She has developed the use of ultra ...

X-ray crystallography typically is used to capture static images of molecular structure. But Philip Coppens of the University of Buffalo and colleagues recently employed a variation called ...

UB crystallographers will continue their research at the nation’s premier X-ray synchrotron thanks to a $17.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation. The funding will support the NSF ...

X-ray crystallography, like mass spectroscopy and nuclear spectroscopy, is an extremely useful material characterization technique that is unfortunately hard for amateurs to perform. The physical ...

For years, the process of X-ray crystallography has moved at a tortoise's pace. "When I started in the field, it would typically take 20 person-years to produce a complete atomic model of one single ...
