Learning outcomes
The course aims to introduce the student to the research of the structure of substances through their interaction with hard electromagnetic radiation, destructive and electrochemical methods. After completing the course, the student is able to interpret structural data resulting from measured experimental data, is also able to basic orientation in choosing a method of studying the structure of substances in relation to its nature and behavior and advantages / disadvantages that these methods provide. It also has an overview of current instrumentation and measurement options. Week 1 Introduction. Symmetry of molecules and some of its consequences. X-ray structural analysis Week 2 - 6 - Introduction: what is structure, grid, grid points, lines, planes and their indices. Closed symmetry operations (symmetry elements: center of symmetry, plane of symmetry, proper rotational axis, rotational-inverse and rotational-reflection axes and the relationship between them), point groups of symmetry. Grid translations and open symmetry operations: Screw axes and slip planes. Spatial symmetry groups (PGS), their graphical representations. Method for describing PGS in "International tables for X-ray crystallography" tables. Origin of X-rays, its monochromatization and detection. Geometric condition of X-ray diffraction - Bragg's equation. Diffraction intensity and its relation to structure - structural factor. Systematic quenching of diffractions depending on the symmetry elements present in the PGS. X-ray powder methods. diffraction. Reitveld's method. What information from diffraction measurements can be obtained. Single crystal methods, evaluation of obtained data. Working with programs for refining structures. Crystallographic databases. Laboratory seminar. Mass spectrometry 7th - 8th week Basics of mass spectrometry, ionization techniques, basic types of mass analyzers, tandem mass spectrometry, combination of chromatographic techniques and mass spectrometry, basics of spectrum interpretation, quantitative analysis. Interaction of matter with high-energy radiation 9-11. week Photoemission spectroscopy (UPS, XPS). Auger electron spectroscopy. Mössbauer spectroscopy. Electrochemistry 12th - 13th week Basics of electrochemistry, electrochemical techniques, possibilities of instrumentation in electrochemistry, introduction to molecular electrochemistry of organic and organometallic substances.
