iRASPA-QT

iRASPA is a visualization package (with editing capabilities) aimed at material science. Examples of materials are metals, metal-oxides, ceramics, biomaterials, zeolites, clays, and metal-organic frameworks. iRASPA leverages the latest visualization technologies with stunning performance. iRASPA extensively utilizes GPU computing. For example, void-fractions and surface areas can be computed in a fraction of a second for small/medium structures and in a few seconds for very large unit cells. It can handle large structures (hundreds of thousands of atoms), including ambient occlusion, with high frame rates.

Main features of iRASPA are:

  • structure creation and editing.
  • creating high-quality pictures and movies.
  • ambient occlusion and high-dynamic range rendering.
  • collage of structures.
  • (transparent) adsorption surfaces.
  • text-annotation.
  • primitives like cylinders, spheres, and polygonal prisms.
  • cell replicas and supercells.
  • symmetry operations like space group and primitive cell detection.
  • screening of structures using user-defined predicates.
  • GPU-computation of void-fraction and surface areas in a matter of seconds.

Input formats:

  • CIF.
  • mmCIF.
  • PDB.
  • XYZ.
  • VASP POSCAR/CONTCAR.

Output:

  • CIF-, mmCIF-, PDB-, POSCAR-, or XYZ-files for structures.
  • 8 bits, RGB, loss-less TIFF for pictures.
  • mp4 (h264, h265, v9) for movies.
