Create n- and p-type doped semiconducting Si unit cell with VESTA

In this short Tutorial, learn to visualize doped atoms in a unit cell with VESTA software. I have shown examples of doping phosphorus (P) and Boron (B) in the unit cell of semiconducting silicon (Si) unit cell. Oven the VESTA software, click on the file and open the cif file of Si. Then go to edit and click on phase. Here, you have to remove the symmetry and then replace one of the Si atoms with P or B and click on apply. Then go to edit and add the bond between Si and doped atom and click on apply. Then, change the color of the atoms and export the file as a raster image in either JPEG or PNG file format. Follow the step-by-step tutorial for further details.
