Abstract:
NIST has a long history of crystallographic research,
and has made significant contributions to the
advancement of the fields of crystallography, biology,
and materials science. The articles are contributed by
scientists from various divisions at NIST, and are
designed to give a brief overview of the history of
crystallography at NIST - past present and future. These
articles cover a broad spectrum of topics including
structural databases, high-pressure crystallography,
neutron crystallography, structure determination via
neutron and x-ray diffraction, quasicrystals, reduced
cells, magnetic structure determinations, polymer
crystallography, electron diffraction, materials
properties databases, protein crystallography, novel
biomaterials, biological minerals, crystallography of
construction materials, and synchrotron radiation.
