Abstract

The reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modelling method, although initially developed for interpreting structural data from liquids and amorphous materials, has been extensively applied to similar data from crystalline systems. This has been especially beneficial for materials which display a large amount of disorder. The work in this area will be briefly reviewed here, including a summary of the range of crystalline materials which have been studied using RMC modelling. Recent developments made specifically to improve the RMC modelling method for crystalline systems will also be described.
