Nanorod structure with facets in lammps

Hi,

I want to generate a gold nanorod structure which have facets (100, 111, 110, 520). I am able to generate a nanorod structure but do know how to generate with facets.

If somebody can comment/suggest, it would be great!

Thanks!

Best,
Ali

You can use the region command plane keyword to define planes, then group the atoms you want to delete then use delete_atoms.
