Crystal Structures Library |
The full version of CrystalMaker includes over
600
fully-annotated crystal files, saved in CrystalMaker
binary format for instant display. This is not just any
database! Each file has been carefully designed to show
the most informative view and model type for a
structure; notebook information tells you about the
structure's features and - wherever possible - detailed
information about the original crystal structure
refinement is given.
The library includes inorganic, organic, technological
and mineral phases. There are around 300 minerals,
including most of the minerals detailed in Deer Howie
and Zussman's "Rock Forming Minerals" student edition!
Ideal for teaching and for research!
A thematic mineral classification, is available as an
appendix. This gives easy access to ore minerals, gem
structures, high-pressure minerals, and other useful
groupings. Other thematic libraries include the Bravais
Lattice Types and crystal chemistry "Type" structures.
