sir,
thank u for the reply, sir i had asked 1 more question to replace one of the Cu atom to Ga(in the similar way as given in the research article, First-principles studies on the electronic and optical properties of CuAlSe2 and CuAl5Se8, Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids 73 (2012) 617–621)

As u can see that in .struct file we have only one Cu atom left and if i change this, whole of the unit cell will contain no Cu atom..then hw can i do the replacement given in the research article
If you have time please hv a look on the .struct file in xcrysden in which the single alone Cu atom in the middle hv to replace by Ga  ((but how???)

thank you
