The aim of these lectures is to inform students about basics of crystal engineering and its possible application. The seminar starts with introduction to non-covalent interactions and also summarises analytical methods used in crystal engineering. Further topics which are discussed during the seminar are: reactions in solid state, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their application in gas or drug storage, and application of non-covalent interactions in design of novel materials (e.g., cocrystals, salts, coordination polymers) for industry.
