Hydrogen Atom Orbitals
This app visualizes the electron orbitals of the hydrogen atom in 3D by drawing the cross-section surfaces of the electron probability density in OpenGL and using the Marching Cubes algorithm.
Features:
- Select the electron orbital to visualize by specifying the quantum number n, l and m, or pick the random one.
- Change the discretization step size.
- Choose the total probability to find electron inside the drawn orbital surface.
- Zoom and rotate the orbital with your fingers.

Decent app. The way the orbitals are shown, however, it is impossible to see the radial nodes in s-orbitals.
Biggest bug: can't create orbitals of type n=2, l=0, m=0 and n>1, l>1, m=0 when percent is set to 99%.
Good educational app If you are looking for an app to visualise orbitals in 3d then you should download this app It is a very bit sized app It helped me to clear my doubts
Amazing and interesting app. It is very helpful for my eduction.
This app is great, but have you considered rendering the models with ray marching?
Its just a simple app.. You should give the people tutorial before using it
I think gonna help me to understand more about hydrogen
please give me all link of other atom orbital
It was awesome
Great, just one problem, the motion is somewhat restricted around the y-axis
It will be better if you can add the display of radial and planar nodes ...
Very useful for teaching
Great for basic information
Optional
This app shows orbital geometries for numerous atomic orbitals 3d on the orbitals take interesting shapes. The figure can be rotated and flipped to show more of the orbital. Just run your finger over the screen. Orbital lobes are some positive and some negative. Suggested app: show hybridized orbital such as sp², sp³, spd³ etc. There are many, some not so well known but giving interesting shapes
This is a very good model of orbitals. The red and blue represent whether a lobe is positive or negative. It would be more informative to display the subscript notations particular with the d orbitals for instance 4dz2 is the orbital on your app label. Then there is dx2-y2, dxy, dxz, dyz. This could be an improvement in your next update. Another idea is a app that shows hybridized orbitals.
Great app for teaching atomic orbitals, and allowing students to visualize how changing quantum numbers affects the shape. An upgrade from passing around fragile models in class.
Simple and excellent. Displays any orbital you wish without fuss.
Excellent app!... with no permissions whatsoever...
This is awesome
Every science student should install this app. It helps to visualize the complex schrodinger model.
I need these structures,how can I get permission to use these structures?
I nevever knew electrons had so many options
Amazingly useful for understanding the shapes of atomic orbitals.....but the "rotation feature" need some improvements!!!!
Great helped a lot... Keep up the good work by helping us more....
it gives clear idea about orbitals
For just a few 100 kBs, great collection of orbitals for quick reference. Just wanted to ask: what program was used to plot the orbitals? Looks very much like the scheme Mathematica, smooth isosurfaces.
