Hi all,

I have been calculating the band structure of Si using the tutorials so, I used the structure inputs as:

#Definition of the unit cell
acell 3*10.217 # This is equivalent to 10.217 10.217 10.217
rprim 0.0 0.5 0.5 # FCC primitive vectors (to be scaled by acell)
0.5 0.0 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.0

#Definition of the atom types
ntypat 1 # There is only one type of atom
znucl 14 # The keyword "znucl" refers to the atomic number of the
# possible type(s) of atom. The pseudopotential(s)
# mentioned in the "files" file must correspond
# to the type(s) of atom. Here, the only type is Silicon.

#Definition of the atoms
natom 2 # There are two atoms
typat 1 1 # They both are of type 1, that is, Silicon.
xred # This keyword indicate that the location of the atoms
# will follow, one triplet of number for each atom
0.0 0.0 0.0 # Triplet giving the REDUCED coordinate of atom 1.
1/4 1/4 1/4 # Triplet giving the REDUCED coordinate of atom 2.

Now if I were to do, for example, 2*2*2 cluster with one dopant inside, how would I able to do this? I assume rprim needs to be changed.
Thanks for your help!
