Title: spin dependent Seebeck
Post by: sayantanu on October 10, 2018, 10:29

Dear ATK users,

When I was trying to generate the spin dependent Seebeck using the nc file and py file given in the following link,

https://quantumwise.com/forum/index.php?topic=3411.15

 I have been getting the following error

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'energies'.
How to solve it ?

Which version of VNL-ATK or QuantumATK are you using to run the script? I have checked that it works for VNL-ATK 2016.4 & 2017.2, as well as for QuantumATK O-2018.06-SP1.

But I'm using 2018.06 and still its not working.

I am not able to reproduce your error on my Windows 10 machine. I have run it in command line as follows:
atkpython.exe seebeck_coefficient.py Device_New_Configuration.nc 
or through the Job Manager, but in this case you have to replace nc (in nlread in the script) with 'Device_New_Configuration.nc '. So, I had no issue with execution of the script.

Are you running on Windows or Linux? Did you really use the python script and nc-file from the zip-archive posted on Forum or your own nc file?

Well it is working fine now, may have been some problem with  my nc file. Is it possible to generate separate thermal conductance also???

I have updated the script, so that you will be able to compute spin-dependent thermal conductance as well, see the attachment.

Thanks a lot.

The script is working fine with nc file but what about files with hdf5 extension?

I guess it should work as well. Let me know if there is an issue with that.
