Visualization

sisl’s strength lies in its post-processing capabilities of DFT outputs and/or manipulating geometries.

However, quite frequently one is in need for good looking graphics. This document tries to explain and show how one may use sisl and related tools for showing publication ready images.

ASE

A sisl Geometry object may easily be converted to ASE objects and thus directly plotted.

import sisl import ase.visualize.view as view

geom = sisl.geom.graphene() view(geom.toASE())

will open a new window showing the atoms.
