Summary on Grant Application Form
The aim of this project is to develop a novel data collection method for single crystals on the time-of-flight Laue diffractometer SXD at the ISIS spallation neutron source. This method will offer unprecedented opportunities for rapid data collection and/or data collection from small samples. Once established, the multi-crystal method should become a routine part of the user programme on the instrument.In this project, as well as developing the methodology, we propose to apply the method to two interesting and timely problems in single crystal organic crystallography. The rapid data collection opportunity presented by the method will be exploited in studying temperature-dependent hydrogen atom migration in a hydrogen-bonded system, while the ability to collect data from small crystals of complex systems will be exploited in the study of a hydrogen-bonded base-paired nucleoside structure.
