Phosphorene
« on: January 22, 2015, 13:10 »
Hello everyone
I follow step by step this tutorial (http://quantumwise.com/publications/tutorials/item/516-how-to-create-a-crystal-structure-with-the-crystal-builder) but the final result isn't equal!!!!

Why??? The bandstructure analysis don't leave me to select the "S" route of brillon zone.

Please help meee

Please check if your bulk configuration has the proper symmetry type. From Bulk Tools->Lattice parameters select simple orthorhombic.
Depending on the operation you have done on your structure you may have accidentally changed it to "Unit Cell", i.e. no symmetry.

If you still have problems you should attach your structure here.

You do not need this step if you follow the tutorial exactly ;)
The structure you create with the Crystal Builder contains the correct symmetry type.
But it's probably a good idea to add a note about that, thanks!
