CrystalMaker10.4

CrystalMaker allows you to enjoy designing and viewing high resolution crystals and molecules in 3D, aiming to give you a helping hand in understanding their structure. Combining scientific accuracy with advanced rendering capabilities, it can generate realistic graphics and animations, which makes it a perfect tool for researchers and students alike.The built-in library includes various structures that you can load before proceeding to creating one from scratch. Models can be easily manipulated using the mouse only, with possibilities to rotate the entire structure, link atoms together, alter parameters such as bond angles and torsion, changing item color for easier identification purposes and so on.Atoms and crystals can be easily moved around, hidden, erased, detached from a structure, molecular sections can be repaired, surfaces can be analyzed closer and internal structures can be investigated. There is a set of tools dedicated to measuring or calculating distances and angles, as well as generating on-screen histograms.One of the main advantages of this application refers to its graphics engine. It features impressive 3D stereo view, field depth, enabling you to get an insight of the model from various perspectives.CrystalMaker can handle a diverse range of models, from the standard ball representation of an atom and connections displayed as lines to much more complex structures, such as polyhedra or ellipsoids. You can experiment with different types of lattices and customize objects according to your preferences.Diffraction pattern simulation, import and export capabilities, structure snapshots, custom notes are some of the other features that are worth mentioning. Additionally, you can create animated movies that can be played as slideshows, regardless of the used platform on the target computer.CrystalMaker is a complete package for generating virtual models of molecules and crystals, analyzing and exploring structures in an intuitive, stylish and interactive working environment. It features amazing 3D visualization capabilities, allowing you to manage lattices and create great-looking animation movies.
