Crystallography has always been a field where attention to detail plays a key role. Research groups such as ICMAB have made significant contributions to the development of structural crystallography, deepening our understanding of the interaction between crystal lattices and material properties. Research in this field not only affects academic science, but also finds resonance in applied areas, including the development of new algorithms for powder diffraction analysis or the study of electron densities. All this paves the way for understanding the fundamental processes that directly influence modern technologies. At the same time, technological development is not limited to fundamental science. Today, practical aspects such as new ways of processing transactions in a digital environment are also being actively researched. Those interested in modern payment methods will find useful an overview of key trends in online casinos, which discusses the possibilities of using cryptocurrencies, mobile payments, and other flexible solutions. An interesting article on this topic is published here:lokaltipp.at. Such examples demonstrate how, in various fields — from crystallography to digital services — progress goes hand in hand with the search for new solutions. Ultimately, it becomes clear that both scientific research and modern financial technologies are driven by the same logic—the pursuit of accuracy, reliability, and the discovery of new opportunities. Just as ICMAB develops new methods for analyzing crystal structures, the digital entertainment industry is introducing innovative payment models, creating new standards for users.
INSTITUT DE CIÈNCIA DE MATERIALS DE BARCELONA

CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

The researchers of the Crystallography and X-ray Diffraction Laboratory were the core around which the CSIC created in the year 1986 the Institut de Ciència de Materials de Barcelona (ICMAB)

About us

This group was the primary seed of ICMAB and, in many cases, other groups of the Institute grew from this group

The current research fields of the laboratory derive from its deep knowledge on structural crystallography and from the corresponding structure-property relationships. New concepts and procedures have been developed during the years as new Patterson search methods or efficient and robust algorithms for phase refinement by direct methods which have been extended to powder diffraction. The study of the topology of experimental electron densities led to a deeper understanding of the hydrogen bond.
