Query regarding creation of skyrmion lattice #622

Closed Sayan611 closed 1 year ago

Sayan611 commented 1 year ago

Dear SPIRIT developers, I can create a single skyrmion in the middle of a 32x32x1 lattice in the SPIRIT interface. Can I make a skyrmion lattice here? I want to know how to copy one localised state from one point and paste it into a different point in my 32x32x1 lattice. I would be grateful if you kindly help me out in this matter. Thank you.

Regards Sayan Banik

If you want to do this by hand in the desktop app, this is only briefly hinted at in the desktop GUI docs

Additional features

Drag mode: drag, copy, insert, change radius

This "drag mode" is activated with F5:

left-click to copy
right-click to paste
hold left-click to drag something around
ctrl+scroll to change the radius

Note that you can automate the creation of skyrmion lattices with a Python script using spirit.configuration
