🧪 How to Use
1. Visualize the database using CryDBkit
pip install CryDBkit
from CryDBkit import website
website.show('CrystDB.db')
⚠️ Note: The database is very large. It might not open on regular laptops. Please try on a Linux server or high-memory system.
2. Query data with ASE
from ase.db import connect
from ase.spacegroup import get_spacegroup
DB = connect('CrystDB.db')
entry_id = 30 # data ID
atoms = DB.get_atoms(id=entry_id)
# Basic info
N_symbols = atoms.get_chemical_symbols() # List of chemical elements
G_spacegroup = get_spacegroup(atoms).no # Space group number
sites = atoms.get_scaled_positions() # Fractional coordinates
cell = atoms.get_cell() # Unit cell parameters
atom_coor = atoms.get_positions() # Cartesian coordinates
