How to create zrs2 nanotube
« on: July 4, 2018, 16:31 »
Hello,

I have been trying to create a zrs2 nanotube and ofcourse  I followed this tutorial steps http://docs.quantumwise.com/tutorials/mos2_cnt.html?highlight=wrapper
when I try the same steps with anatase cell and apply the tube wrapper tool, instead of having a circle, I have something twisted, forming a spiral, and the bonds are destroyed. And even have this problem whit mos2 please help me about it
Regard

When saying that you are having this problem with MoS2, do you mean that you are unable to reproduce the tutorial result for the MoS2 example?

Dear sir
I solve that problem and now , i can simulate it but:
1-when use lattice paramiter that com in article for zrs2, it seams my result is not true, i attach it as bad-zrs2, please see
2-but when double lattice paramiter ( 3.663,  11.654) ، and atomic possition is     Zr= 1/3 2/3   1/4 , S= 2/3   1/3    0.121  ,  S=2/3   1/3    0.379   , the problem that i say in up, is not exist, the result is attached below,
- what is the reason at 1 row?
- is the action method in 2 row true?
Thanks a lot

It is impossible to say from pictures alone whether a structure is physical or not - if you do not have a literature reference to compare to, you will need to do calculations to determine if the structure is (meta)stable.
