Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, November/December 2001. Volume 106, No. 6. Special Issue: Crystallography at NBS/NIST

摘要

This collection contains reports on 18 research projects in the area of crystallography at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The articles cover a broad spectrum of topics including high-pressure crystallography, magnetic structure determinations, quasi-crystals, novel biomaterials, biological minerals, structure determination via neutron and x-ray diffraction, reduced cells, standard reference materials, phase equilibria and ceramic oxides, crystallographic texture, zeolitic materials, near perfect crystals, electron diffraction, crystallographic databases, protein crystallography, crystallography in construction, and synchrotron radiation. This Special Issue, is part of The Centennial Celebration of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), formerly known as the National Bureau of Standards (NBS). NBS/NIST has a long history (more than 50 years) of crystallographic research with contributions from many scientists from various divisions and diverse disciplines.
