Supercell program: a combinatorial structure-generation approach for the local-level modeling of atomic substitutions and partial occupancies in crystals.

Current release

About

A a combinatorial structure-generation approach for the local-level modeling of atomic substitutions and partial occupancies in crystals. It uses supercell approximation and enumeration algorithm to convert structures with vacancies and/or substitution to "binary" occupied. The program mostly uses to prepare DFT calculations of battery matrials, semiconductors etc.
