Hi all,

Is it possible to change the dimesnsions of a supercell along two axes, say, [100] and [010] and allow the the [001] only to relax??

I want to study the effects of strain on the electronic properties of Si, there are many reported works in the literature that emplyed VASP to do the above task, but I cant figure out how!!!

I'ld really appreciate your help,
Lexa

You should write some bash scripts for that purpose.
