Nanocut is a program designed to cut out various objects from three dimensional crystal structures. It is aimed to be helpful when creating geometry input for atomistic simulations. Currently it can create following objects:

• Spherical cluster
• Polyhedral cluster
• Cylindrical cluster
• Spherical wire (1D periodic)
• Polyhedral wire (1D periodic)
• Plain slab (2D periodic)
• Supercells (3D periodic)

See the DOCUMENTATION for more details.

The program is available under the 2-clause BSD license. It is an open source project, so feel free to join it; especially if you think that some additional features are needed or something could be implemented in a more user friendly way. If you find the program useful, please recommend it to others who may be also interested in using it.
