I am looking for a software to draw BN nanocage for DFT calculations. I tried it in nanotube modeler, but its not working. Can anyone suggest which one is best tool for BN nanocage structure?
Do you need xyz data for B-N nanotubes? Please tell me the diameter, chirality and length.
No, for nanotubes I have. I need for nanocage.
Thanks for your reply
Creating the initial structure of the nanocages is time consuming. I use HyperChem, but it is quite tedious.
The cylinder part of the nanotube can also be made quickly with a builder, but it's hard to make the initial structure of the cap part.
I don't know if HyperChem is the best, but this is how I created mine.
You may want to use xyz data of large fullerenes.
