Title: a tool to determine if the electrodes are long enough
Post by: kalewu on April 12, 2013, 20:58

Dear Sir,

Now I am using the ATK 12.8.2. I want to use the script to determine if the electrodes are long enough before calculating the transmission spectrum. (the script I used can be found here: http://quantumwise.com/publications/tutorials/mini-tutorials/99). I droped it on the Custom builder icon in the main VNL window and then drop my two-probe geometry on the drop-zone labeled "Drop system here". However, I just find the information in the log file:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\zipdir\NL\GUI\Core\Runner.py", line 230, in run
  File ".\zipdir\NL\NanoLanguage\Builder.py", line 85, in dummyAnalyzerGenerator
NL.ComputerScienceUtilities.Exceptions.NLError: No analyzerGenerator defined. Use the method 'setAnalyzerGenerator()'
to set an analyzerGenerator

What should I do?

Thanks in advance.

There is no Custom Builder icon in the main VNL window in 12.8. From the error message it looks like you are dropping the script on the Custom Analyzer. In 12.8 the Custom Builder is a bit hidden (since it's going away), you open it first via Tools>Custom Builder. Then you can drop the script on the Custom Builder window.

Hi, Dear Anders Blom,

Thanks for your reply. I have got the Custom Builder via Tools>Custom Builder now. However, I can not find any report in the log panel when I drop the two-probe geometry on the drop-zone labeled "Drop system here".

Should work. Maybe an error in your system?

I have solved the problem now. Thanks
