About Crystal Studio

• Crystal Studio was developed in 1997 and 1998,
  extensively tested and first released in 1999,
  and then underwent a major upgrade every year.
  Version 9.0 was released in January 2007. Ever
  since its first inception, Crystal Studio has
  been very robust and stable. It seldom requires
  fixes or patches owing to our extensive tests,
  not like some other software which are either
  first developed or overhauled and require
  continuous maintenances.

3

• Crystal Studio is a multi-document / multi-view
  integrated software developed for Windows
  95/98/ME, Windows NT/2000 Windows XP and Windows
  Vista operating systems. Implemented with latest
  software technology, Crystal Studio is very
  powerful, fast and very simple to use. Empowered
  with a crystallographic database and a
  hyper-linked online help system, Crystal Studio
  lets you create crystal structure with stunning
  color and 3D realism in just a few mouse clicks.
  Crystal Studio presents an ideal tool for
  research and teaching in crystallography,
  materials science, solid state chemistry and
  physics, mineralogy and other fields related with
  crystal structures.

4

• Apart from providing normal crystallography
  functionalities like 3D graphics etc. as other
  packages, Crystal Studio offers ample functions
  for defects like dislocations, twin boundaries
  and stacking faults, interfaces and surfaces and
  two phase coherent combinations. It also covers
  XRD, neutron and electron diffraction simulations
  and reciprocal lattice. Moreover it especially
  simulates the combined zone axis diffraction
  patterns for twins and two phase coherent
  combinations.

Database Powered

• Crystal Studio is integrated with a
  crystallographic database. The database contains
  information about all 530 space group
  specifications from various versions of
  International Tables for (X-Ray) Crystallography,
  information on all elements in the Periodic Table
  including valence, radii etc. and latest data for
  atomic scattering amplitude and Debye-Waller
  factors for diffraction calculations. The
  database also include a crystal structure
  database with 6000 common crystal structures
  (Enterprise Edition) and a layer/cluster
  database, you can build your own crystal
  structure database for easy access to your
  routine crystal structures.

13
Simple User Interface

• Double click on any object such as atoms, bonds
  and polyhedra invokes a dialog box for changing
  various aspects for that object and/or its
  equivalents. You can change various parameters
  either in individual or in equivalent classes.
  Double click anywhere else on the views invokes
  dialog or property sheet for you to change
  various parameters for the view. You can edit the
  crystal structure visually.

14

• Right mouse button click on all views and objects
  invoke a context sensitive pop-up menu of
  commands for the views and objects, repectively.
  These pop-up menus make editing in 3D view quick
  and easy.
• Unlimited steps of Undo and Redo of all editing
  processes.

15
Multiple Tools

• 3D Crystal View
• 3D Molecule View for Macro-Molecules
• Create Nanotubes and Nanocones

Why Use Crystal Studio
43
A Versatile Research Tool

• With Crystal Studio at hand, anyone in the fields
  of condensed matter physics, chemistry, materials
  science engineering, mineralogy and geology
  etc. who has little knowledge of crystallography
  becomes an expert immediately and can use it to
  investigate the atomic arrangement and structure
  of matter and find out their relationship to its
  properties.
• For experts in crystallography, Crystal Studio
  provides various ways for them to customize
  crystal structures, by choosing different cell
  styles or by cell transformations. Crystal Studio
  even provide easy means for experts to change or
  create new space group specifications so that
  they can experiment with different cell symmetry
  settings.

44

• When you take experimental powder patterns, you
  can use Crystal Studio to plot theoretical
  patterns for quick initial matches and/or
  indexing.
• When you take experimental electron diffraction
  patterns, you can use Crystal Studio to plot
  theoretical patterns for quick matching and/or
  indexing or for quick determination of coherent
  phase relationship.
• Use stereographic projection to study coherent
  phase relationships.
• Study the structure details of proteins and their
  conformation
• High resolution photo-realistic 3D crystal or
  macro-molecule images are excellent for
  publications.

45
An Interactive Teaching Aid

• A projector can be used to bring the views up to
  a big screen or each student or group of students
  can get a direct feel on crystal structures and
  their beauty on their computers in the class room
• Apart from interactive 3D crystal structure, look
  at atom arrangement on crystal planes with 3D
  atom view of planes

46

• Selective build can be used to explore the
  structure build up of complicated crystal
  structures
• Various crystal defects
• Simulation of X-ray, neutron and electron
  diffraction patterns
• 3D Reciprocal Lattice
• Stereographic Projections
