Lieselotte Templeton (née Kamm, 4 August 1918 in Breslau – 10 October 2009 in Berkeley, California) was a German-born American crystallographer.
[8] Her PhD thesis, written under the supervision of Leo Brewer, was named: "The heats of formation of CN, N2 and NO".
[10] This program helped solving several crystal structures of heavy-element compounds and was also important for her studies on anomalous dispersion with synchrotron radiation on absorption edges which she performed jointly with David H.
[10] This led to the development of the multi-wavelength anomalous diffraction phasing, now a standard method for protein structure analysis.
[10] Three of her most important publications on anamalous dispersion of absorption edges with synchrotron radiation: Two of her publications on X-ray dichroism in anisotropic molecules: She received the Patterson Award of the American Crystallographic Association jointly with her husband David H. Templeton in 1987 for their discoveries regarding use, measurement, and analysis of anomalous X-ray scattering.
