Diffraction Support |
CrystalMaker works with our two
diffraction programs, CrystalDiffract and
SingleCrystal, to simulate, manipulate and
measure all kinds of diffraction properties
from your crystal structure.
You can even simulate diffraction patterns directly
from CrystalMaker, via the Transform >
Diffraction Pattern submenu.
X-ray or Neutron Powder Diffraction
CrystalDiffract
provides powerful measurement
and analysis features, including real-time
parameter control: simulate phase transitions
and learn about diffraction experiments
interactively, by clicking and dragging slider
controls, or inputting numeric values.
The full version of CrystalDiffract allows you to
display observed experimental data with simulated data,
and hence to index diffraction peaks and detect impurity
phases. You can simulate multi-phase
mixture, with control over background functions, and
simulation of particle size and strain effects.
Single-Crystal Diffraction
Our new SingleCrystal program lets you visualize
sections of the reciprocal lattice and also simulate
transmission electron microscope (TEM) diffraction
patterns.
SingleCrystal provides real-time, mouse-driven rotation
through reciprocal space, with additional tools for
precise angular rotations (tilts) and setting view
directions. Distances and angles can be measured
on screen, with the option of detailed text output
and high-resolution printing.
CrystalMaker and SingleCrystal
are designed to work together seamlessly:
rotate your crystal in
CrystalMaker and see its diffraction
pattern rotate in SingleCrystal (and
vice versa).
