I have generated the amorphous IGO (In-Ga-Oxide) configuration and calculated the formation energy for the neutral and charge states in the interstitial defect. I have quite a few structures for this study.
Each structure has a different trap level in the conduction band and varied formation energy (both positive and negative values). I'd like to know what the physical definition of negative formation energy is here. Does obtaining the negative formation energy have any meaning?

One more question:
https://docs.quantumatk.com/tutorials/smw_defects/smw_defects.html
According to this tutorial, we can calculate charged point defects using SMW components. I would make use of this method to calculate the defects associated with my structure. Can you tell me about any tutorials on how to add my structure to this SMW material database and calculate the defects?

I am trying to simulate IGZO amorphous structure following the below tutorial.
 
https://docs.quantumatk.com/tutorials/amorphous_structures/amorphous_structures.html#amorphous-structures

I lower the density of the unit cell and do melting and I get the error to do optimization because of atoms leaving the boundary.

My question is  do I need to optimize this structure ? Because  i want to lower the density and make a cubic structure and do optimize after cooling process.

Here I attached the  log file for you reference.

Actually, nobody has done a forcefield for IGZO before as far as I know, so that would be extremely valuable in general. We could provide support and guidance for that effort, it could actually be a great test-case for some new features we will introduce in December. You can reach out to me separately on email to discuss this further.

I tried to reach you but it says blocked personal messages.

Thank you for your time and the file.
Meantime I got the  InGaZnO4 Crystal structure from materialsproject which is working without any errors.
I would like to generate a amorphous structure. will the amorphous pre-builder is good choice or MD simualtion?
Can you give your suggestion?
Thank you

Thank you for your response.
I am unable to attach the *.cif file.

I have downloaded the InGaZnO4 crystal structure from the below link.

https://materials.springer.com/isp/crystallographic/docs/sd_1402632

and try to open in the builder and an error occurred.

Thank you

Hi
I have downloaded the crystal structure of InGaZnO4( CIF file) from Springer Material. When I import into the builder following error occurred.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/QuantumATK/QuantumATK-S-2021.06/lib/python3.8/site-packages/AddOns/ConfigurationLoaders/ConfigurationLoaders.py", line 300, in load configurations = importCIFFile(filename) File "zipdir/NL/IO/CIFFile.py", line 841, in importCIFFile File "zipdir/NL/IO/CIFFile.py", line 816, in configurationsFromCIF File "zipdir/NL/IO/CIFFile.py", line 732, in bulkConfigurationFromBlock File "zipdir/NL/IO/CIFFile.py", line 600, in bravaisLatticeFromBlock File "zipdir/NL/IO/CifHandler/CifHandler.py", line 375, in __getitem__ File "zipdir/NL/IO/CifHandler/CifHandler.py", line 457, in GetCifItemKeyError: 'Item _cell_length_a not in Cif block'

Currently, I am using the S-2021.06 version. Please clarify the above error.

Thank you.

General Questions and Answers / Electrostatic Doping
« on: June 14, 2021, 03:46 »
I have generated the p+n+ diode structure with i-layer and  the doping in the n+ and p+ region with doping concentration of 2×10+20 /cm3.
The doping is considered as electrostatic doping like extra charge is added on atom .
My question is how it consistent with the normal doping( using conventional dopants like P & B)?
Is this kind of doping really forms depletion region like conventional dopant ?
Can anyone give the clarity on this?
Thank you

when I run using the LCAO calculator for optimization i am getting the below warning

WARNING

I don't understand what is the significance  can anyone pls tell about this warning?

Thank you

ok. I will try other calculators.
Thank you for your suggestion.
