Title: error in custom build
Post by: jerry on May 18, 2012, 08:23

Dear，

When i use ATK 12.2 to build a nanoribbon through custom build, an error concerning dangling bond length comes out. Can some one help me with this? Thanks!

Jerry

The error is as follow:

File ''.\zipdir\NL\GUI\core\Runner.py'', line 230, in run
File''.
\zipdir\NL\GUI\Tools\CustomBuilder\Builders\GrapheneRibbonBuilder.py'',
line 31. in configuration
Type error: _init_() got an unexpected keyword
argument
'dangling_bond_length'

This error happens when i use custom builder to build GNRs.

I see. This is an unfortunate known bug.

However, it doesn't really matter, because if you have ATK 12.2 you really should the try new Builder instead, and use that to build your nanoribbons. It's a lot more powerful.

See the tutorials (in particular http://quantumwise.com/documents/tutorials/latest/BasicGrapheneTutorial/index.html/index.html) for more information.

Thanks！ Actually，i have been used to the VNL of 11.8. I am assessing 12.2 with a temporary license. One more question. If i want to evaluate this version one month later, can i get a trial license to use it? Given that one month of experience is perhaps not enough to convince me to update my current version.
