People have started doing QM-like things on this; for obvious reasons with methods like DFT etc. But you still have to start with some 3D model, and if this can be done with Jmol, it sounds like a win to me...

Yes, I think it can be done easily, without any expnasion in the scripting language. My concerns are about correct atom position, and also adding more atoms that were not present and should go in the right positions too. For example, you could easily change all O atoms at a certain distance from Si atoms and bonded in a certain way, into S atoms. But then the bond lengths will not be correct, and how to add another layer of atoms bonded to those S? -- HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.

Re: [Jmol-users] silica nanoparticle
Hello Kazem I do not think that Jmol is your best tool for that, since I am guessing there will be a lot of (repetitive) silica groups to which the new groups must be added. Removal of groups is probably easy. For just one addition it could be done, although still not the best choice. Although Jmol has some editing capabilities now, its design is of a viewer, so building models is harder. An exception is the Model Kit application like e.g. in Chemagic.com - but that's for single, small, molecules and so far from your needs I think. · Dr. Angel Herráez Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Dept. of Systems Biology, University of Alcalá E-28871 Alcalá de Henares (Madrid), Spain -- HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.

[Jmol-users] silica nanoparticle
Hi, I have made a silica nanoparticle using Materials Studio and I want to modify surface chemistry of it, I want to remove unwanted groups from the surface and create some new groups on the surface of nanoparticle in manner that matches with experimental data. Can I do that using Jmol? Do you have a better suggestion for me?
