stereo-, stere-

(Greek: solid, firm, hard; three-dimensional)


stereochemistry, stereochemical
The study of how the properties of a compound are affected by the spatial positions of groups within its molecules. Stereochemistry is also concerned with determining the structure of stereoisomers (molecules with the same atoms and bond structure, but different three dimensional arrangements of atoms).
2. The study of the spatial distribution of atoms in a compound and its effects on the compound's properties.
stereochromy
stereognosis
stereognostic
stereogram
A diagram or picture which represents objects in such a way as to give the impression of relief or solidity.
stereograph
A picture with two superimposed images or two almost identical pictures placed side by side which, when viewed through special glasses or a stereoscope, produce a three-dimensional image.
stereography
1. The technique, or art, of depicting a three-dimensional object on a flat surface.
2. The study and construction of defined geometric objects.
3. Photography that involves the use of stereoscopic equipment.
stereoisomerism
stereological
stereology
stereometry
stereomicroscope
1. A microscope with two optically separate eyepieces to make viewed objects look three-dimensional.
2. A microscope (simple or compound) for each eye (binocular), giving different aspects and, therefore, a stereoscopic effect.

There are two kinds of compound stereomicroscopes: binobjective and common main objective.

stereomusic
stereophonic
Giving the impression of a spatial distribution in reproduced sound; specifically, employing two or more channels of transmission and reproduction so that the sound may seem to reach the listener from any of a range of directions.
stereopticon
A "magic lantern", especially one with two projectors arranged so as to produce dissolving views.
