INORGANIC CRYSTAL STRUCTURE DATABASE (ICSD)
ICSD is the world's most extensive numeric database of inorganic crystal structure data. It contains records of all inorganic crystal structures, with atomic coordinates, published since 1913.
The database currently contains around 89,064 inorganic structures (July 2006), and complements the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). It is updated twice a year.
ICSD is available via its own web interface. It is also accessible using CrystalWeb and the old command line interface.
A Flash movie demo of the web interface is available here. The search interface, with a typical hitlist, is shown below.
ICSD is produced cooperatively by FIZ Karlsruhe and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
