Thank you Taylor, you video is SUPER helpful! I am not seeing the polyhedron when adding crystal phases. Can anyone tell me how I should change the settings?
thank you. how can you add crystal facets under a predefined angle? I only know the miller index of two faces of the sample and the angle between them, and which crystal structure it is. I need to find the crystal orientation.
I'm sure there's a better way to do this, but I would simply iterate through the different permutations in Vesta and use the measure angle tool until you find the one that matches
Hi Taylor, your videos have helped me a lot. Thanks for posting that! I have a suggestion for a next video (it's a problem I've been facing). How to correctly convert a .xyz file to cif on VESTA. When I try to export to cif, the simulation box often gets bigger than the size of the structure, so there are empty spaces between the simulation box and my chemical structure above and on the sides of the structure (I am using P1 space group). When I try to change the size of the simulation box in vesta, I just shrink or fully enlarge the structure, and I don't change the distance between the simulation box and my chemical structure. Thank you!
@@TaylorSparks I guess xyz files does not contain information about lattice parameters it only have atomic positions, it may give you bad resulsts. However if you are adding it manyally, I would suggest to export the file as .vasp file first and open it in vesta and then export again as cif file. good luck
@@TaylorSparks Wow, unexpectedly quick reply! Greetings from the Southern hemisphere @2:39 AM, Australia~ Looking forward to your video! Stay safe and healthy~~~
This is possible but it's a little bit tricky. If you check out my Vesta video on doing multiple different Crystal structures together that's essentially what you need to do
Well, i do exactly the same as you did in the video... blah blah blah --> crystal shape --> 1 1 1 (Co as well) and... nothing happend. What can be the problem? I have the same version as yours. I did that on both windows and macos... no clue what to do.
I found a sollution for that. Check the symmetry of your unit cell Edit --> Edit data --> Unit cell. Here i chose Cubic structure with No 202 space group (Fm-3). All the rest as from the video
@@dr.pradipm.macwan1729 you can find them on my software tutorials playlist on my channel. Just search through the playlists and you will see it. Many of them have to do with Vesta
Very nice and straightforeward. many tutorials have long and useless introductions, this was very nice, thank you for sharing it
Glad to be of service! Like and share to help me grow channel :)
Thank you for the well-elaborated video.
Thank you for the helpful video!

Hi Taylor, Nice and helpful video. Could you please make a video on generating Icosahedra Nanoparticles in VESTA? It will be really helpful. Thanks.
Thank you for the helpful video.
I was wondering if you could help me find a way to cut an oblate spheroid nanostructure from a crystal structure?
Hey Taylor!! Your videos are really helpful to me.
Can you let me know how to download gold nanoclusters cif please.

Have you tried pymatgen? I know it can do the opposite, so I bet it can do XYZ to cif

I don’t know why but I’m not able to get shape for Aluminum nanocluster after edit-> edit data->crystal shape -> 111 with 3 space apply
This is so straight forward. However, I tried it, but mine wasn't displaying the actual facets. It remained constant as the original cubic cell.
Well, i have the same problem: the shapes are not viewed. Did you find any sollution for that?
Check the symmetry. This should be incorrect as default (wrote about it a comment above)
Can we make perovskite NC using this method?
Sure. What specific facets are you interested in? What specific chemistry?
A big thanks to all the vesta tutorials! Great job! BTW, is it possible to plot a popular 2D Morie pattern using VESTA?
Yes. I can do a video on that. You will need to set two different unit cells and manually define the angle between them.

@@TaylorSparks Hahah sure thing! Working hard once in a moon, I guess I will fancy emulating you professor in my dream hahaha~
Thanks! Are there any entry level (bachelor's) bioinformatics jobs that utilize VESTA without an advanced degree?
I'm not sure
I have some problems with Ag@AgCl nanoparticles and how to build on vesta? please introduce.

Hi, can you please help me to create MXene structures.
Which one?
