Computational Raman Database

Welcome to Computational Raman Database (CRD)

In this database, you can find a collection of Raman spectra calculated from first-principles and other related properties of a large variety of semiconductors and insulators. There are interactive Raman/IR spectra with raw data of calculated tensors on each structure page. The materials can be searched using formula, the number of atoms, Materials project id, dimensionality, and a lot of other keywords.

Our database of Raman tensors is built on top of Phonon Database of Prof. Atsushi Togo, with many of the shown phonon properties coming directly from this database. In addition, some properties from the Materials Project database are also shown.

We hope that the Computational Raman database will be useful as a reference for unknown Raman spectra identification, spectra analysis, and material characterization for experimental and computational researchers alike.
