In order to underpin novel synthesis strategies both to facilitate these applications and to encourage new ones, a thorough review of current and emerging techniques for materials characterisation is needed. Examining important techniques that allow investigation of the structures of inorganic materials on the local atomic scale, Local Structural Characterisation discusses: Solid-State NMR SInorganic Materials SeriesChemical structureMaterialsChemical structure.Materials.543/.5Bruce Duncan W861136O'Hare Dermot861137Walton Richard I107204MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815320103321Local structural characterisation4005159UNINA
