Fun with graphene

[rruisan]

I do not understand, once the zip file in AddOn Manager installed. Being on Builder, where I see the ripples in graphene and other example he gives? Thanks in advance!

1. Make a nanoribbon or nanosheet
2. Open Coordinate Tools>Buckler or Twister
3. Change parameters, click buttons

Dear Anders!


Thank you very much for the clear explanation, I thank you, just one last question with this topic, for the ripples in graphene, there any tutorial to tell me how I change the parameters being Coordinate Open Tools> Buckler or Twister.  Thank you very much for the kind patience you have me.

[Anders Blom]

How you change the parameters? You type in a new number...

[rruisan]

I mean to create ripples values ​​take the amplitude, periodicity or angle or all variables to consider.

[Anders Blom]

Yes

[rruisan]

What values ​​should I wear for generate the ripples? So that resembles reality! there is a tutorial that explains it, please!

Hi Anders,

I have download and installed fun with graphene plugin, but I don't know how activate or use
in VNL 2017.0.
Please, could you explain me how to use it in 2017.0 version?

Thanks,

Kind regards,

[Anders Blom]

To activate it, restart VNL. To use it, see the tutorials, the addon installs some new plugins in the Builder, the Twister and Buckler tools.

I have made a collection of 3 useful, fun, cool and hilarious plugins that can be applied to graphene (and in fact any other 2D material) to twist, bend, ripple the structure to create buckled structures, half-wrapped tubes, twisted nanoribbons, etc.

To install, please download the attached zip file, then go to Help>AddOn Manager in VNL and click "Local install" to install the file. You should restart VNL to make the plugin active (unless you haven't yet started the Builder in the current VNL session).

Attached are also some examples of systems you can build with this addon!

It's an old topic, but just want to say that this is an awesome job, nice

Fun and hilarious plugins? I've found these plugins quite useful for my project work. Installation is easy and it has solved my quite a few problems. I would love to see more plugins like these. Thank you so much for creating these.

[Anders Blom]

Thanks for your kind feedback - it was fun to write the plugin, but even better that it's useful!

[Anders Blom]

Since it seems there is still some interest in this plugin, I have updated it to work with newer versions of QuantumATK based on Qt5 (after 2017).
Still the exact same functionality, and you can easily install it via the Plugin Manager.
Have fun!
