abtem.atoms.is_cell_valid(atoms, tol=1e-12)[source]#

Check whether the cell of given atoms can be converted to a structure usable by abTEM.

Parameters:
  • atoms (ase.Atoms) – The atoms that should be checked.

  • tol (float) – Components of the lattice vectors whose magnitude is below this value are considered to be zero.

Returns:

valid – True if the atomic structure is usable by abTEM.

Return type:

bool
