What will I learn?
This course equips you with essential tools to interpret, evaluate, and modify oxide crystal structures for efficient ion movement. Explore unit cells, space groups, Wyckoff positions, and symmetry operations, applying them to CIF data, oxide databases, and standard prototypes. Develop expertise in identifying diffusion routes, optimizing bottlenecks, selecting dopants, and suggesting precise structural changes confidently.
