With this award from the Major Research Instrumentation program (MRI), Daniel R. Talham and colleagues Khalil A. Abboud, Ronald K. Castellano, George Christou, and Lisa McElwee-White from the University of Florida will acquire a SMART APEX II DUO X-ray Diffractometer equipped with a new storage system for data archiving and central file sharing for the Single-crystal X-ray Laboratory to provide structural analysis. Besides these researches many newly hired faculty members in the chemistry department will use the instrument for research in new materials synthesis, organic, inorganic, biochemical, and polymer chemistry. The new instrumentation will play a critical role in accomplishing the research, educational, and outreach goals of the department.The technique of single-crystal X-ray crystallography allows accurate and precise determination of the full three dimensional structure of a molecule, including bond distances and angles, and it provides accurate information about the spatial arrangement of molecules relative to the neighboring molecules. These studies will have an impact in a number of areas ranging from synthetic chemistry to systems of biological interest and cleaning of the environment.

通过主要研究仪器项目（MRI）的奖励，来自佛罗里达大学的Daniel R. Talham和同事Khalil a . Abboud、Ronald K. Castellano、George Christou和Lisa mcelwe - white将获得一台SMART APEX II DUO x射线衍射仪，该衍射仪配备了一个新的存储系统，用于单晶x射线实验室的数据存档和中央文件共享，以提供结构分析。除了这些研究外，化学系的许多新聘教师将使用该仪器进行新材料合成、有机、无机、生物化学和聚合物化学的研究。新仪器将在完成本系的研究、教育和外展目标方面发挥关键作用。单晶x射线晶体学技术允许精确和精确地测定分子的完整三维结构，包括键的距离和角度，它提供了分子相对于邻近分子的空间排列的准确信息。这些研究将对从合成化学到生物系统和环境清洁等许多领域产生影响。
