<i>ISODISPLACE</i>: a web-based tool for exploring structural distortions

Abstract

ISODISPLACE is a new internet-server tool for exploring structural phase transitions. Given parent-phase structural information, it generates atomic displacement patterns induced by irreducible representations of the parent space-group symmetry and allows a user to visualize and manipulate the amplitude of each distortion mode interactively. ISODISPLACE is freely accessible at http://stokes.byu.edu/isodisplace.html via common internet browsers.
