Workshop on diffuse scattering and structure simulation, Erlangen, Germany
In this workshop, participants will learn to interpret diffuse scattering and to simulate disordered crystal structures. Defects are quite common in crystals and are responsible for a number of properties like ionic conductivity, the electronic properties of indirect semiconductors and the like. In diffraction, defects can be detected through diffuse scattering, and the description of these structures is largely incomplete without proper interpretation of the diffuse scattering.
The workshop covers the techniques to simulate and to refine disordered structures for a wide range of defects, and the corresponding calculation of the diffraction pattern for single crystals and powder, as well as the calculation of the pair distribution function (PDF).For further information, please visit:
