New tutorial online, check it out!
Pt diffusion on Pt surfaces: NEB calculations

In this tutorial you will learn how to perform Nudged Elastic Band (NEB) calculations to investigate diffusion or reaction barriers.
As an example, you will calculate the diffusion barrier of a single Pt adatom on flat and stepped Pt surfaces.

General rule: always check the ATK Reference Manual to have more details about all the parameters used in the tutorial.
In this case the NudgedElasticBand class and the OptimizeNudgedElasticBand function.
