    <p>Dear Uttam Paliwal,<br>
    </p>
    <p>Another approach would be to use simple geometry and to create
      the cell by hand. This also helps to understand structures instead
      of using some program - which I can only recommend to do once you
      need to create more complex structures or have more complicated
      materials.</p>
