HEllo,
I tried once before with some issues related to required overlap and such in atk, so i eventually started using the GUI .. but i really need to make devices (with electrodes) totally programmatically ... so i can automate some things ..
this is what i am thinking:
1) create bulk with something like
bulk_configuration = NanoSheet(6,0)
bulk_configuration = bulk_configuration.repeat(1,1,10)
bulk_lattice = bulk_configuration.bravaisLattice()
bulk_elements = bulk_configuration.elements()
bulk_cartesian_coordinates=bulk_configuration.cartesianCoordinates().inUnitsOf(Angstrom)
2) create similar electrode section by coping from the bulk on left and right ends ....
3) put together as device ...
Is there a simpler way to do this? I tried before and had issues with lining up elements so that they overlap the same elements in the bulk ...
