"Crystallography and Symmetry" is a subject of the second semester of the first year of the Degree in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, which belongs to the Basic Training Module.
This course aims at training students on knowing and learning to apply the fundamentals of point symmetry and spatial symmetry, to become familiar with the world of crystals, with the most common structures of crystalline solids, with X-ray diffraction as a tool for characterising crystals, and with the relationship between crystallography and symmetry with other disciplines. This knowledge and skills will provide the theoretical and practical basis necessary for the student to delve into the world of crystalline nanomaterials and their characterisation by diffractometric and spectroscopic methods in subsequent subjects of the degree in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology.
