Crystallography is the scientific study of crystals and their structures. It involves analyzing the arrangement of atoms within solid materials, particularly in crystalline substances where atoms are arranged in a highly ordered, repeating pattern. Crystallography plays a crucial role in various fields, including chemistry, physics, biology, and materials science. Key aspects of crystallography include: 1. **X-ray Diffraction**: This is one of the primary techniques used in crystallography.
