    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="Setting up a database --------------------- To construct a database we first need some atomic structures so let&#x27;s quickly create some. As you have seen the ASE command line tool provides many convenient commands and in particular we can use the build command to create some atomic structures. Remember, if you are unsure how to use a particular command you can always append -h to the particular command (ie. ase build -h) to see the help for that particular command.">

This type of approach is useful in searching for the global optimum position of adsorbates on a surface while enforcing that the adsorbates&#x27; identity is preserved. In short, this example searches for a global optimum configuration using the minima hopping algorithm together with Hookean constraints to preserve molecular identity of an adsorbate.">
