Especially, i have desired to ask the question about doped atom (replacement by another atom) in VESTA. First of all, i cretaed supercell (2x2x2) for CsSnBr3 and this allows to 8 Cs atoms, 8 atom Sn atoms and 24 Br atoms. I want to only one Sn atom replacement by Ni atom. But all Sn atoms changed with Ni atom not one.
can anyone recommend for this issue?
Maybe this will help: after you create the supercell by Unit Cell Transformation, you have to press the button "Remove symmetry" to have all individual atoms coordinates in Structure Parameters. Then you can change individual atoms to any atomic species.
Many thanks for your reply. I mean that you sugessted remove symmetry button in attached picture for structural parameters. I did that. I choose remove symmetry first of all. But same failure occured.
Also, when asked the question "How to convert the structure", choose the option "Search atoms in the new unit-cell and add them as new sites"
Many thanks. It happened just now!!! as you suggested i click the button as you suggested. Many many thanks
