This video shows the exploration of several crystal structures using the Crystal Viewer Tool. Several powerful features of this tool are demonstrated, including the following:

• visualization of simple cubic Bravais lattices, including simple primitive cell(SC), body centered cubic (BCC), face centered cubic (FCC)
• visualization of tetragonal Bravais unit cells, including SC and BCC
• viewing a unit cell and a large grid structure
• 3D lattice rotation
• changing the size of atoms and thickness of bonds in the displayed lattice
• orthoscopic projection of a lattice
• visualization of orthorhombic Bravais unit cells including SC, BCC, FCC, and base centered cubic (CXY)
• visualization of monoclinic Bravais unit cells including simple primitive cell (PC) and CXY
• visualization of triclinic Bravais PC unit cell
• visualization of trigonal (rhombohedral) Bravais PC unit cell
• visualization of hexagonal Bravais PC unit cell and lattice
• cycling through lattices composed of all the Bravais unit cells
