100 years of modern crystallography: http://www.iucr.org/iycr Welcome to the Open Access Crystallography Resource Portal Crystallography Open Database: Contains more then 360,000 small molecules and small to medium unit cell crystal structures (including minerals but excluding biopolymers). Main sites www.crystallography.net (in France) and cod.ibt.lt (in Lithuania). Less frequently updated mirrors cod.ensicaen.fr (in France), qiserver.ugr.es/cod (in Spain), nanocrystallography.org and nanocrystallography.research.pdx.edu/search/codmirror/ (in North America). Portland State University’s Nano-Crystallography Group: nanocrystallography.research.pdx.edu hosts small educational open […]

3D Print Files

PSU 3D Converter A dedicated web-based tool has been created that allows users to find atmoic structures, create 3D models, and export the model to 3D print files.  One can search the Crystallographic Open Database (COD), download CIF data files, and then open them in the same tool for 3D visualization.  The 3D model may […]

Crystallography Open Database

Crystallography Open Database [North American Mirror, modified search interface and JSmol/Jmol displays] Search and view Several crystallography databases are offered for browsing. You can search the databases, download and display the contained Crystallographic Information Files  (CIFs), view 3D models of the encoded crystal structures and morphologies. We also provide the North American mirror of the Crystallography Open Database (COD) […]

The goal of this project is to provide interactive 3D visualizations of crystal structures and morphologies in order to help educate future materials scientists and engineers worldwide. We also host freely downloadable 3D print files of crystallographic models. This website is maintained by Portland State’s Nano-Crystallography Group and utilized for classroom demonstrations in courses such as introductory […]
