Hello,
I have modified the base file of NaX, available in RASPA to suit the Si/Al ratio, which I want. The base file in RASPA has Si/Al = 1 (96 Si, 96 Al). For my simulations, I need Si/Al = 1.23 (106 Si, 86 Al), differentiating the oxygen atoms based on connectivity to Si or Al. I have changed the base file using RASPA simulations, whose input file is given below. RASPA generates an output file in the Movie folder, titled 'Framework_0_final_1_1_1.cif', which I have attached in this post. This file has 86 Al and 106 Si, meaning that random substitution has worked. My question is as follows :
Why is iRASPA unable to visualize this file? There are total 576 atoms/ unit cell. When I upload the modified file, it only reads 232 atoms and the structure generated is not right. However, VESTA is able to generate the correct structure. I would really appreciate it if you could help me with this.
Thanks,
Rajasi
