Spiral CNT
« on: July 19, 2017, 12:38 »
Hi, I want to make a spiral CNT (rolled up graphene) structure, but can't do with the builder in ATK 2016.4. I tried with the tube wrapper plugin but it's not working properly. Kindly help.

Why don't you just use the Nanotube Builder and select the proper chirality? (see attached png)

What I want is something different. The open end to look like a rolled up carpet/ swiss roll.

First of all you will need a very broad sheet to do that, but I believe setting the angle to > 360 degrees might work. Not sure the plugin supports very high values, you may need to edit the source code to allow you to enter a very large angle.
