honeycomb

sisl.geom.honeycomb(bond, atoms, orthogonal=False, vacuum=20)

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 (float) – bond length between atoms (not lattice constant)

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

• orthogonal (bool) – if True returns an orthogonal lattice

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

Return type:
