๐ฆ Modules
PyGamLab consists of several core modules, each focused on materials modeling, nanoscience, and data-driven discovery.
๐งฑ Structure
Provides tools to generate, manipulate, and analyze nanoscale and bulk materials.
Key Features:
- Generate 0D (clusters, nanoparticles), 1D (nanowires, nanotubes), 2D (nanosheets, thin films), and bulk crystals.
- Automated builders for nanoclusters, nanotubes, and supercells.
- Geometric operations: rotation, translation, scaling, merging, slicing, and symmetry analysis.
- Supports formats:
.cif,.xyz,.pdb,.vasp,.json, etc. - Integration with ASE and Pymatgen via built-in converters.
๐จ GAMVis
Internal visualization engine for interactive 2D and 3D visualization of molecules, nanostructures, and crystals.
Capabilities:
- Real-time 2D/3D visualization
- Graphical representation of bonds, surfaces, and charge distributions
- Export publication-quality figures and animations
๐ค Ai_core
Integrates machine learning workflows into materials research.
Highlights:
- Automated regression, classification, and clustering workflows
- Access to 140+ pre-trained models
- Fine-tuning and inference on user data
