Jasminka, As someone who has never really solved anything hard but who dreams of being able to, I am happy to meet you.
A good place to start is Armel LeBail's web page. He has a nice description of part of the process, http://www.cristal.org/ and suggestions for some FREE software for solving structures from powder data! There is also another mailing list - the SDPD (Structure Determination from Powder Diffraction) devoted to this topic. - Kurt ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jasminka Popovic" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 09, 2004 5:50 AM Hi, let me introduce myself at the beginig. My name is Jasminka Popovic and I am phd student at faculty of science university of zagreb. I did my graduation theisis on structure determination of single crystals and till know all the work I did regarding crystallography was single crystal strucutre determination and refinement. Recenty I joined a powder diffraction group at Institut of Rudjer Boskovic. I have learned (more or less)how to to fitting, how to do indexing, and how to refine structure using rietveld method. But one thing is missing...I know how to "solve" and refine when I have strucural model to start with...so I was wondering which is the best method for obtaining the structural model when you have no clue how the structure should look like...thank you all Jasminka -- Sudjelujte u Iskon Bonus nagradnom programu i osvajajte nagrade.
