Description
Crystal Impact’s Diamond v4.6 is a software program for crystal and molecular structure visualization that includes features like automatic picture creation, improved copy/paste for structures, and enhanced functionality for building and manipulating molecules. It allows for exploring crystal structures, generating images, and working with data from the Crystallography Open Database (COD). Recent versions also include bug fixes to improve stability and performance.
Key features
- Visualization: Allows for the exploration and visualization of crystal and molecular structures.
- Picture creation: Includes an “Auto Picture Creator” and “design schemes” to automate and manage the generation of structure images for presentations and publications.
- Structure manipulation: Offers functions to build and modify structures, such as generating molecules, defining molecular units, and creating molecular packings.
- Molecule building: Can automatically generate or complete molecules and fragments, and can expand or shrink polymers.
- Connectivity and contacts: Provides tools to define and create hydrogen bonds and non-bonding contacts, and to expand or reduce molecule clusters based on these contacts.
- Copy/Paste: Improved copy and paste functionality that works for similar structures, not just identical ones, as long as they share the same space group and similar cell and atom parameters.
- Data integration: Access to the Crystallography Open Database (COD) and CIF files from IUCr journals is included.
- Performance and stability: Version 4.6 includes bug fixes for issues related to CIF import and other functions.
Additional information
- Version 4.6.x: The specific version number indicates a series of updates. For example, v4.6.8 is the latest version, released December 16, 2024.
- Installation: The software is distributed as a self-extracting executable file and includes online help, a user manual/tutorial, the COD, and sample files.
- Demo version: A demonstration version is available that is identical to the full version but with some restrictions
