The MRSEC Facilities Network is a nationwide partnership of NSF supported MRSEC centers designed to provide support to researchers in the broad area of Materials Research in academic, government and industrial laboratories around the world.
Electron Microscopy Simulation

"Electron Flight Simulation" (Version 3.1) by Small World, Inc.

Environmental SEM analysis simulation and modeling software for Windows.

CrystalKit and MacTempas (Mac)

CrystalKit (version 1.8.3) Provider: Total Resolution

Crystallographic modelling of crystals, defects and interface. The program starts from single crystal data through a data-bank of the 230 spacegroups, and accepts up to 2 different crystalstructures for creating interface structures. The final structure generated by CrystalKit can be saved in a MacTempas file or an EMS supercell file for immediate simulation of diffraction patterns and High Resolution TEM images.

MacTempas (1.7.9) by Total Resolution

Multislice calculation of TEM diffraction and images. MacTempas is a full Macintosh application. Dynamical calculations of wavefunctions in thin crystal is carried out with defined slices and microscope parameters, and the output in different thickness can be controlled. Images as well as diffraction patterns at different conditions are shown in montage tables.

Gatan DigitalMicrograph (ver. 2.5) and EL/P (ver. 2.1)software (Mac)

DigitalMicrographâ„¢ is Gatan Imaging Filter (GIF) system control software and also provides users to process and analyze images with TEM-oriented functions. For example, to perform Fourier transform (FFT) from either digital images or diffraction patterns, and the diffraction can also be masked with designed patterns. This program can also read images in some popular formats, such as TIFF, PICT, etc.

EL/P (v.2.1) is for acquiring and processing electron energy loss spectrum (EELS). In combine with DigitalMicrograph, the program can monitor the CCD-image of the spectra, as well as performing EELS mappings with selected edges of elements. Features of this EL/P include automated edge detection and identification, zero-loss peak tail deconvolution, thickness computation, and quantitative analysis with improved cross-section calculation. Processing spectrum with alignment and filter options, as well as Fourier transform (convolve/deconvolve) are available. Sample spectrum from a variety of compounds are provided.
