Solid State Chemistry and its Applications, 2nd Edition, Student Edition

Welcome to the companion website for Solid State Chemistry and its Applications, 2nd Edition, Student Edition by Anthony R. West. This website contains a variety of supplementary resources which will be useful to users of the book.

On this site you will find the following resources:
1. CrystalViewer (available for Windows and Mac).
   CrystalViewer is a visualisation program for displaying and manipulating crystal structures. The CrystalViewer software facilitates the exploration of crystal structures in three dimensions, allowing users to view the structures in different orientations, and highlight/hide different structural features so as to aid the interpretation of complex crystal structures.
2. Crystal structure library.
   The CrystalViewer program is accompanied by over 100 crystal structure files; many of these structures relate directly to illustrations from the book, identified by their figure numbers, and a variety of additional structures are provided to complement the concepts and applications discussed in the text.
3. Answers to the question set.
   The complete set of questions can be found on pages 525–535 of the book.
4. Figures from the book as PowerPoint slides.
