Annotation -
The course is focused on the broadening of knowledge and skills acquired in the master studies course Crystal Chemistry or in similarly oriented coursed. The main objective is to learn the advanced computation techniques currently used in studying inorganic srystalline solids, such as crystal structure refinement by means of Rietveld method, calculations of electronic structure, cohesive energies, phonon spectra, crtstal defects energies and crystallochemical equilibria. On solving the practival exercises and problems connected to the assigned projects the programs Wien2k, VASP, Phonon, Fullprof Studio and FactSage will be employed.
