Crystal Structures Library

CrystalMaker X includes a built-in library of over 1000 crystal and molecular structure documents. This is no mere "database"! All our structures provide rich metadata, notes, chemical formulase, rotatable previews - and are fully searchable. Each structure has been carefully designed to convey the best-possible visual understanding and in many case we provide a series of different structural views in the same document. Each document is ready for instant display: no import or structure-generation necessary - just open and explore!

Where's the Library?

The library is an integral part of the program and can be accessed at any time by clicking the Library button in the toolbar or by choosing: View > Library Browser. You can also add an existing library file to an existing window using the File > Add to Window > Structure from Library command.

More Structures?

We include a range of structures libraries on our website, including over 10,000 materials.

Even More Structures?

CrystalMaker can read from around 40 different file formats, including industry-standard CIF, PDF and Cambridge Structures Library "FDAT" files. Please refer to our crystal search page for links to two useful - and free! - databases.
