Crystallography

WebCSD
Web interface to the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). Contains published crystallographic data on organic, organometallic, and metal complex structures whose 3D structures have been determined using X-ray diffraction or neutron diffraction.
Note: When accessing new data content, the University of Nevada, Reno site ID and a University of Nevada, Reno specific annual confirmation code may be required. Send us an email to request a current access code.

Online Dictionary of Crystallography
Dictionary maintained at the International Union of Crystallography. The definition require some knowledge of the subject to understand.
Crystallography Open Database
Open-access collection of crystal structures of organic, inorganic, metal-organics compounds and minerals, excluding biopolymers.

Handbook of ternary alloy phase diagrams
10 volumes with information on ternary phase diagrams and crystal structure data. Composed on 3,317 alloy systems and 7,050 crystallographic data.
Phase Diagram for ceramists
Eight volumes with information on phase diagrams compiled by the Ceramics Division, National Bureau of Standards.

ASM Alloy Phase Diagram Database
Note: On-campus access only.
A fully-searchable database containing over 40,300 binary and ternary alloy phase diagrams, each with their associated crystal and reaction data.
