Main features of ReciPro

• ReciPro provides many crystallographic calculations for 530 (Hall symbol) space groups
  
  • General conditions (or extinction rules), Wyckoff positions, multiplicities.  
  • Geometrical calculation of periodicity and/or angle between planes and/or axes 
  • Generation of equivalent atomic positions

• ReciPro includes many atomic properties
  • Characteristic X-ray wavelength/energy
  • Atomic scattering factor for X-ray, electron and neutron

• ReciPro can simulate diffraction patterns
  • X-ray, electron, and neutron sources are available.
  • Kinematic simulations for the all sources
  • Dynamic simulations for electron based on the Bethe method as follows
    • Parallel electron diffraction (SAED)
    • Precession electron diffraction
    • Convergent beam electron diffraction

• ReciPro draws crystal structure using OpenGL4
  • Atomic positions
  • Bonds and Polyhedra
  • Unit cell and lattice planes

• ReciPro plots stereonet (Wulf-net)
  • Axes and planes of any indices
  • Large and small circles

• ReciPro identifies diffraction spots in the observed image
  • Support many file format (dm3, dm4, tiff, …)
  • Detect and fit diffraction spots automatically
  • Identify (or index) the diffraction spots for the selected crystal(s).   

• To setup a crystal structure, you can
  • Import from CIF, AMC format files
  • Import from COD and AMCSD database through CSManager
