Gas electron diffraction (GED) is one of the applications of electron diffraction techniques.[1] The target of this method is the determination of the structure of gaseous molecules, i.e., the geometrical arrangement of the atoms from which a molecule is built up. GED is one of two experimental methods (besides microwave spectroscopy) to determine the structure of free molecules, undistorted by intermolecular forces, which are omnipresent in the solid and liquid state. The determination of accurate molecular structures[2] by GED studies is fundamental for an understanding of structural chemistry.[3][1]
