General Questions and Answers / DFT and Temperature
« on: October 13, 2017, 18:28 »
Hi. What is temperature of DFT for ATK?

Future Releases / New Type Computers
« on: September 10, 2017, 08:34 »
Hi. New computers have solid state drivers. Because of their prices, they  are not keeping more data. Some people like me may prefer using these limited computers as a presentation device.  But  while one is making a speech, a demonstration can be needed to. I think linux and windows portable Atomistix or only a viewer which is lighter will be great for these devices. Portable softwares in usb can be run after find a license file in computer.

(For fun: I bought a 32 GB device which is actually approximately 29 GB. . Windows send  14 GB updates to this device. 
I do not know why still manufactures are thinking 1 kilo bit= 1000 bayt but computers are persisting 1 KB is 1024 bayt. Now I am using only ubuntu.)

General Questions and Answers / Re: Hubbard U

Atomic number of fluorine is 9. Its orbital configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p5. Then you don't need to use Hubbard term for fluorine, either.

I think you do not need Hubbard U correction for carbon and its allotropes. Because C atoms do not have d or f orbitals.

General Questions and Answers / ZT Calculation
« on: July 28, 2017, 19:46 »
Hi, again. I wonder if ZT values are correct with thermal conductance of electrons calculated with DFT and thermal conductance of phonons calculated with ATK classical.

Hi. My device calculations aborted when I used gga.half method. Error message is below:
"** Back Engine Exception : The number of grid components must match.
** Location of Exception : spingrid3d.cpp:164



===================================================================================
=   BAD TERMINATION OF ONE OF YOUR APPLICATION PROCESSES

My script was attached. How can I solve this problem?
Thanks for helps.

Step 4- OptimizeGeometry ---> Atomic Constraint Editor (step4.png)
(Sorry, all files are too large to send one post)

38
Step 3- Send the structure to scrip generator (step3.png)

Hi. I hope I could help you. My structure has no sense but an example.
Step 1- Create your structure (step1.png)
Step 2- Select gold atoms and tag them by selection tools (step2.png)

Hi. You can tag gold atoms. Then you should look constraint editor options in geometry optimization plugin. You will see tagged atoms. Fixing these atoms is a solutions.

A sentence from this page is
"In contrast, the Green’s function surface model consists of a single surface region attached to an electrode (a fully periodic bulk)."
I understood I need fully periodic electrodes for device transport calculatin. But non device configuration doesn't give good configurations for non-periodic structures. Then should I use 2D periodic electrodes with creating interfaces to non-periodic structure or like attaching molecules, attach bulk electrodes to the structure?

42
Hi,
Which type of electrodes should I use for non-periodic 2D structures or nanosheets?
Thank you for any answers.

43
I prepared a script to calculate quantities with changing temperature based on examples on this forum. I hope, this script will be useful and give inspiration to other users  :)

These two articles have different results for lattice conductivity of PbTe
http://pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/ArticleLanding/2012/EE/C2EE22495J#!divAbstract (fig. 7c)
https://journals.aps.org/prb/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevB.89.205203 (fig. 5)
Is there any setting about volume in your calculation?

Which material did you use?
