Department Structure and Dynamics of Energy Materials

8th X-ray School at HZB (Lise-Meitner campus), 18 -22 November 2024

Thank you very much for your interest in the 8th X-ray School!

The school will introduce the participants in various X-ray diffraction measuring and analysis methods to apply them in current projects. It is primarily intended for Ph.D. students who are beginners in X-ray diffraction. The school will be held in person, so the number of participants is limited. Topics of the X-ray School are:

  • Fundamentals of crystallography and X-ray diffraction
  • Pattern simulation and fitting with Powder cell and Fullprof
  • Crystallographic databases (ICDD-PDF 5+ and ICSD)
  • Instrument introduction and training (powder and thin film diffraction)
  • Pattern treatment and phase analysis
  • X-ray diffraction at non-ambient conditions

For full school program please see the program webpage.

If you are interested in participating in the school please please send an email to the lab responsible (michael.tovar@helmholtz-berlin.de) with a brief statement about your motivation. Please note that participation in the entire week is mandatory.
