struc_modecrystal, mol, mol_bscrystalStructure generation mode
natotintThe total number of atoms.
atypeatomic symbol [atomic symbol …]Atom type. e.g. atype = Na Cl.
natint [int …]The number of atoms in each atom type. e.g. nat = 8 8.
mindist (mindist_?)float [float …]NoneConstraint on minimum interatomic distance [Å].
mindist_factorfloat1.0Scaling factor for mindist.
vol_factorfloat1.0Minimum and maximum values of volume factor.
vol_mufloatNoneMean of volume if you want specify the volume of cells.
vol_sigmafloatNoneStandard deviation of volume if you want specify the volume of cells.
symprecfloat0.01Precision for symmetry finding.
spgnumall, space group number, 0allConstraint on space group. If all, 1–230. If 0, random structure without space group information (no symmetry).
use_find_wyboolFalseStructure generation with find_wy.
