What is LatticeFinder
LatticeFinder is designed to give you the optimum lattice constants for a 3D system.
Try LatticeFinder before you Clone/Pip/Conda (on Binder/Jupter Notebooks)!
If you are new to the LatticeFinder program, it is recommended try it out by running LatticeFinder live on our interactive Jupyter+Binder page before you download it. On Jupyter+Binder, you can play around with the LatticeFinder program on the web. You do not need to install anything to try LatticeFinder out on Jupyter+Binder.
Click the Binder button below to try LatticeFinder out on the web! (The Binder page may load quickly or may take 1 or 2 minutes to load)
Have fun!
Installation
It is recommended to read the installation page before using the LatticeFinder program.
latticefinder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Installation.html
Note that you can install LatticeFinder through pip3 and conda.
Output files that are created by LatticeFinder
The LatticeFinder program is designed to give the information that you can use to determine the optimise value of the lattice constant for your system. For example, for a Au face centred cubic (FCC) lattice you can first perform an broad overlook of the energy per atom for various lattice constants.
You can then add more lattice constant measurements around the point where you believe the lowest energy form of the Au FCC lattice resides
The data of the energies of all FCC lattices for various lattice constants are also given, as well as other final details about the optimum system, such as the stress tensor and bulk modulus.

This program is designed to help obtain the optimal lattice constants for systems that contain more than one lattice constant. For example, for a Au hexagonal close packed (HCP) you will obtain the following plots:
