Software for Pictures

There are a number of free software packages for creating crystallographic diagrams. They have their strengths and weaknesses and its worth trying different ones to find out what they can do, and what you are comfortable with.

Creating good molecular diagrams

First impressions count
 

Humans tend to make a snap judgement on something or someone based on his/her/its appearance. This is true even in science! The main aim of creating a good paper or poster is to encourage people to read about your research.

Growing Good Crystals

In all cases, the location of your flasks for crystal growth should be vibration free if possible. Storing them right next to a vacuum pump may not be such a good idea!

X-ray Diffraction Facility

The X-ray Diffraction Facility is part of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Arizona. It is a shared multi-user instrumentation facility capable of carrying out experimental work on single-crystal and powder samples of chemical compounds for the purpose of determining molecular structure in the solid-state.
