"""Create surface from a given lattice and Miller indices.
lattice: Atoms object or str
Bulk lattice structure of alloy or pure metal. Note that the
unit-cell must be the conventional cell - not the primitive cell.
One can also give the chemical symbol as a string, in which case the
correct bulk lattice will be generated automatically.
indices: sequence of three int
Surface normal in Miller indices (h,k,l).
layers: int
Number of equivalent layers of the slab.
vacuum: float
Amount of vacuum added on both sides of the slab.
periodic: bool
Whether the surface is periodic in the normal to the surface
