Start with fcc Pd unit cell.

x supercell    (2x2x2, P, add vacuum (eg. 5 bohr, no repetition) in all 3 directions.

This produces a 32 atom cluster.

Now edit the struct file and delete 18 atoms, all those which have a x,y or z position of larger than 0.5.

Run nn and sgroup and accept the structures. It has 2 inequivalent atoms with 48 symmetry operations.

Hello wien users
I want to simulate the nanoparticle structure of Palladium in fcc structure. To model the smallest particle with cubic shape we use the unit cell  with 14 atoms as mentioned in the article.

How to do that in wie2k
