If you know the space group number N, set variable "space_group=N", then set "nat" to the number of wyckoff positions (not of atoms), then provide atomic positions as follows ATOMIC_POSITIONS crystal_sg X 4c y where X=your atomic symbol, y=the value of parameter "y". Paolo On 09/03/2023

Usually, if there is x-ray data on single crystals, the wyckoff positions are given there. Alternatively, one can use evolutionary algorithms such as USPEX to generate stable structures but this could be time consuming. Cheers, Vahid Vahid Askarpour Department of physics and atmospheric

[QE-users] Orthorhombic unit cell

2023-03-09 Thread sally issa
Good morning all, Is there anyone have worked with orthorhombic cell? I want to define the unit cell for orthorhombic with 4 atoms:(0,y,1/4),(0,-y, 3/4), (1/2, y+1/2, 1/4) and (-1/2, -y+1/2, 3/4). With wyckoff position (4c). I don’t have idea how define y. Do you have suggestions ? Thank you
