Geometric Crystallography Course
Gain mastery in geometric crystallography tailored for oxide electrolytes. This course teaches you to interpret CIF files, analyse symmetry elements, trace diffusion pathways, and engineer doped or vacancy-rich structures to enhance ionic conductivity in batteries and solid-state chemistry applications. Develop practical skills for reading crystal structures, evaluating prototypes from oxide databases, and proposing modifications to optimise fast ion transport.

What will I learn?
This course equips you with essential tools to interpret, analyse, and modify oxide crystal structures for efficient ion transport. You will study unit cells, space groups, Wyckoff positions, and symmetry operations, applying them to CIF files, oxide databases, and standard prototypes. Build expertise in mapping diffusion pathways, identifying bottlenecks, selecting dopants, and suggesting precise structural changes with assurance.
