Ordered learning path
Connect crystal structure and diffraction with phase fractions and simplified composite-property estimates.
Follow in sequence
The path is guidance, not a replacement for the knowledge graph. It can intentionally cross discipline boundaries when a prerequisite belongs to another field.
Crystal Structures
Core step
Periodic atomic arrangements described through lattices, unit cells, coordination, and idealized packing.
Bragg's Law and X-ray Diffraction
Core step
Geometric diffraction condition relating wavelength, lattice-plane spacing, order, and Bragg angle.
Binary Phase Diagrams and the Lever Rule
Core step
Using tie-line compositions and overall composition to determine phase fractions in a binary two-phase region.
