X-ray Crystal Growth for Structure Analysis

X-ray crystal growth is a key step in X-ray crystallography, the method used to determine the spatial arrangement of atoms in a crystalline solid. That structure reveals the three-dimensional shape of a molecule or complex. Since structure and function are closely linked, this information can help explain a compound's behavi...

A single crystal is required for the determination of its structure. The quality of the crystal heavily influences the quality and accuracy of the structural determination.

A single crystal is a solid in which the molecule arrangement repeats in all three dimensions. The spatial arrangement of the atoms within the crystalline solid can be ...
