Crystal Viewer Demonstration: Bravais Lattices
Category
Published on
Abstract
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 orthorhombic Bravais unit cells including simple primitive cell (SC), body centered cubic (BCC), face centered cubic (FCC), and base centered cubic (CXY)
- cycling between the various orthorhombic unit cells
- 3D rotation of unit cells and lattices
- visualization of an orthorhombic lattice composed of 3 unit cells in each dimension, for each unit cell type
- adjusting the displayed size of atoms and thickness of bonds
- orthoscopic projection of a lattice
