Shedrck Akpe

Thanks Kempanna Kanakikodi Please could expatiate more.

Yosef Nikodimos

Hi Shedrck,

Open your file using vesta, then follow these steps

Edit ® Edit data ® structure parameter

You will get full xyz coordinate positions for each atom in the structure.

Sometimes you may not get the full structure coordinates. If it is so, first export the data to VASP (POSCAR,vasp) form, then open it again using VESTA. Then follow the above steps to get the full coordinates of the crystal structure.

After that you can change any element whatever you want.

Thank you so much Yosef Nikodimos . I got it.
