7.9.6 General crystal structures and surfaces<br />

<strong>ASE</strong> <strong>Manual</strong>, <strong>Release</strong> 3.6.1.2828<br />

Modules for creating crystal structures are found in the module lattice. Most Bravais lattices are implemented,<br />

as are a few important lattices with a basis. The modules can create lattices with any orientation (see below). These<br />

modules can be used to create surfaces with any crystal structure and any orientation by later adding a vacuum<br />

layer with lattice.surface.add_vacuum().<br />

Example<br />

To set up a slab of FCC copper with the [1,-1,0] direction along the x-axis, [1,1,-2] along the y-axis and [1,1,1]<br />

along the z-axis, use:<br />
