honeycomb

sisl.geom.honeycomb(bond: float, atoms: sisl.typing.AtomsLike, orthogonal: bool = False, vacuum: float = 20) Geometry

Honeycomb lattice with 2 or 4 atoms per unit-cell, latter orthogonal cell

This enables creating BN lattices with ease, or graphene lattices.

Parameters:
  • bond – bond length between atoms (not lattice constant)

  • atoms – the atom (or atoms) that the honeycomb lattice consists of

  • orthogonal – if True returns an orthogonal lattice

  • vacuum – length of vacuum region (along 3rd lattice vector)
