Description

This tool will help in visualizing various types of Bravais lattices, planes and Miller indices needed for many material, electronics and chemistry courses. Also large bulk systems for different materials (Silicon, InAs, GaAs, diamond, graphene, Buckyball) can be viewed using this tool. The main purpose of this tool is to provide insight about the crystalline structure of various materials.

This is the first release of the tool, and it will hopefully improved down the line. Please feel free to send comments and requests in the nanoHUB help system.

  1. 3.0 out of 5 stars 

    Posted on 11 June, 2008 by Mohamed Mohamed

    Nice tool for beginners. It would be much powerful if you can also show 2D atomic arrangements of atoms along different planes (i.e. cut along 110, 111, 100) at least for
    diamond/zinc blende lattice. This would help students visualize and count number of atoms at different planes and use this information for hw problems.

    Also...if possible..it would be nice to show a visualization of how to obtain by a diamond lattice starting from one fcc atoms. Many beginners have trouble visualizing how diamond lattice can be constructed from 2 fcc lattice offset by a/4 (x + y + z)
