anorgaanilistel

Anorgaanilistel is a term used to describe a field of study that concentrates on inorganic lattice materials and their interfaces. It encompasses the synthesis, structure determination, and property engineering of extended inorganic networks and crystalline solids.

The scope includes inorganic frameworks such as silicates, phosphates, sulfides, nitrides, and related composites, as well as perovskite- and spinel-type lattices. The discipline intersects with crystallography, solid-state chemistry, and materials science, applying concepts from symmetry, coordination chemistry, and defect chemistry.

Common techniques include X-ray and neutron diffraction, electron microscopy, various spectroscopies, solid-state NMR, and computational modeling such as density functional theory. These methods reveal atomic order, bonding, defects, and phase transitions in inorganic solids.

Applications of anorgaanilistel research span catalysis, energy storage and conversion, optics and electronics, and separation technologies. Natural minerals and synthetic inorganic materials alike are studied to understand structure–property relationships.

History and status: While the term is not universally used as a stand-alone discipline, its components are widely taught and researched within inorganic chemistry and materials science. Research often emphasizes porous inorganic frameworks, crystal engineering, and high-throughput or AI-assisted materials discovery.
