Synopsis "Principles of Optical Crystallography (in English)"
Principles of Optical Crystallography is a comprehensive guide to the study of crystals and their optical properties. Written by renowned crystallographer Aleksei Vasil'evich Shubnikov, the book covers the fundamental principles of crystallography, including crystal symmetry, crystal lattice structures, and the use of X-ray diffraction in crystal analysis. The book also explores the optical properties of crystals, such as birefringence, polarization, and optical activity, and how these properties can be used to study crystal structures. The text is accompanied by numerous diagrams and illustrations to aid in understanding the complex concepts presented. This book is an essential resource for students and researchers in the fields of crystallography, materials science, and optics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
