Ok I got a solution: use <a href="http://sobereva.com/multiwfn/">multiwfn</a>. It may seem sketchy at first, but trust it. There's this option where you'll input your .restart file from your geometry optimization. Then entering '100' for 'other functions part 1.' Then '2' to export. Then "33" to get .cif. It worked for me. If you have a MacBook with intel, I'll glady explain the steps to download the program since there can be some issues with directories and command-line programs.<br /><br /><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="auto" class="gmail_attr">On Wednesday, October 15, 2025 at 2:15:47 AM UTC-4 Uzma Sattar wrote:<br/></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0 0 0 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div dir="auto">Yes need to make this structure periodic. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"></div></div><div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, 15 Oct 2025 at 12:13 PM, Alex Espinoza <<a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">ales...@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div></div></div><div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)">You can try translating in VESTA. After trial and error, I changed the lattice parameters ABC to 2:2:2 and it seems to touch the boundary. I did this by going Edit > Edit Data > Unit Cell > changing a,b, and c. Just make sure to remove the bonds, or VESTA may crash. You could also change ABC in cp2k input files. Is the goal to make this periodic?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="auto" class="gmail_attr">On Tuesday, October 14, 2025 at 9:39:14 AM UTC-4 Uzma Sattar wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)">Thankyou for your response.
