Education |
|||
|
Courses on crystallography, crystal structure determination and powder diffraction are offered when there is a group of interested people |
|||
|
|
Students are encouraged to participate in experiment setup and data treatment (must be requested when submitting sample) |
(Safety certificate is required to work in the lab) |
|
|
|
Users can request meeting to analyze crystal structures, get help with the software, or discuss publication issues, etc. |
||
|
|
There are capabilities for a remote demonstration of the X-ray laboratory, diffractometers (internet video camera) and data collection (PCAnywhere) |
||
|
Training |
|||
|
Training in the theory and operation of the instruments for students and the researchers of local industry is usually provided on the individual basis |
|||
|
|
Training is provided by PI or experienced authorized user |
|
|
|
|
Prior training safety certificate should be obtained from the radiation safety office |
||
|
|
Usually training is done using user's samples in several sessions |
||
|
|
After training user is granted card access to the lab and can work independently |
(see user guide here) | |
