  2. Procedure for structure analysis Overview of strategy What is needed lattice parameters space group done simultaneously reflection positions

  3. Procedure for structure analysis Overview of strategy What is needed lattice parameters space group done simultaneously need crystal system for size & shape of UC some info on symmetry also acquired reflection positions

  4. Procedure for structure analysis Overview of strategy What is needed lattice parameters space group done simultaneously need crystal system for size & shape of UC some info on symmetry also acquired small no. reflections needed for crystal system and approx. LPs reflection positions

  5. Procedure for structure analysis Overview of strategy What is needed lattice parameters space group done simultaneously need crystal system for size & shape of UC some info on symmetry also acquired small no. reflections needed for crystal system and approx. LPs large no. for precise LPs reflection positions

  6. Examples for LP detn Get a-value for each reflection Which one is correct? or best?

  7. Examples for LP detn Depends upon  Consider effect of expt'l error on a-values at different s Braggs' law says error in d depends on error in sin 

  8. Examples for LP detn Braggs' law says error in d depends on error in sin  d eqn says error in a (cubic) depends on error in d d2 = a2/(h2 + k2 + l2) Thus, error in a depends on error in sin 

  9. Precise LPs Best a-value at  = 90° extrapolate a-values vs. cos2

  10. Precise LPs Best a-value at  = 90° extrapolate a-values vs. cos2

  11. Precise LPs Best a-value at  = 90° extrapolate a-values vs. cos2

  12. Precise LPs Another common extrapolation fcn - Nelson-Riley fcn

  13. Procedure for structure analysis Overview of strategy LPs & SG done simultaneously need crystal system for size & shape of UC some info on symmetry also acquired systematic extinctions ––> Bravais lattice glide planes, screw axes space group - almost ex: Imma (centric) ––– Im21a (non-centric) get correct SG in final structure detn
