class
sisl.physics.
BandStructure
(parent, point, division, name=None)¶ Bases:
sisl.physics.BrillouinZone
Create a path in the Brillouin zone for plotting band-structures etc.
- Parameters
parent (object or array_like) – An object with associated parentcell and parent.rcell or an array of floats which may be turned into a SuperCell
point (array_like of float) – a list of points that are the corners of the path
division (int or array_like of int) – number of divisions in each segment. If a single integer is passed it is the total number of points on the path (equally separated). If it is an array_like input it must have length one less than point.
name (array_like of str) – the associated names of the points on the Brillouin Zone path
Examples

asarray
()¶ Return self with
numpy.ndarray
returned quantitiesThis forces the
__call__
routine to return a single array.Notes
Please use
self.apply.array
instead. This method will be deprecated >0.9.9.All invocations of sub-methods are added these keyword-only arguments:
- etabool, optional
if true a progress-bar is created, default false.
- wrapcallable, optional
a function that accepts the output of the given routine and post-process it. Defaults to
lambda x: x

param_circle
(sc, N_or_dk, kR, normal, origo, loop=False)¶ Create a parameterized k-point list where the k-points are generated on a circle around an origo
The generated circle is a perfect circle in the reciprocal space (Cartesian coordinates). To generate a perfect circle in units of the reciprocal lattice vectors one can generate the circle for a diagonal supercell with side-length \(2\pi\), see example below.
- Parameters
sc (SuperCell, or SuperCellChild) – the supercell used to construct the k-points
N_or_dk (int) – number of k-points generated using the parameterization (if an integer), otherwise it specifies the discretization length on the circle (in 1/Ang), If the latter case will use less than 4 points a warning will be raised and the number of points increased to 4.
kR (float) – radius of the k-point. In 1/Ang
normal (array_like of float) – normal vector to determine the circle plane
origo (array_like of float) – origo of the circle used to generate the circular parameterization
loop (bool, optional) – whether the first and last point are equal
Examples
>>> sc = SuperCell([1, 1, 10, 90, 90, 60]) >>> bz = BrillouinZone.param_circle(sc, 10, 0.05, [0, 0, 1], [1./3, 2./3, 0])

func (callable) – method that parameterizes the k-points, must at least accept two arguments,
