sisl.physics.electron.EigenvalueElectron

class sisl.physics.electron.EigenvalueElectron(c, parent=None, **info)[source]

Bases: sisl.physics.electron.CoefficientElectron

Eigenvalues of electronic states, no eigenvectors retained

This holds routines that enable the calculation of density of states.

Methods

DOS(E[, distribution])

Calculate DOS for provided energies, E.

copy()

Return a copy (only the coefficients are copied).

degenerate([eps])

Find degenerate coefficients with a specified precision

iter([asarray])

An iterator looping over the coefficients in this system

occupation([distribution])

Calculate the occupations for the states according to a distribution function

remove(idx[, inplace])

Return a new coefficient without the specified coefficients

sub(idx[, inplace])

Return a new coefficient with only the specified coefficients

c

dkind

The data-type of the coefficient (in str)

dtype

Data-type for the coefficients

eig

Eigenvalues

info

parent

shape

Returns the shape of the coefficients

DOS(E, distribution='gaussian')[source]

Calculate DOS for provided energies, E.

This routine calls sisl.physics.electron.DOS with appropriate arguments and returns the DOS.

See DOS for argument details.

__init__(c, parent=None, **info)
c
copy()

Return a copy (only the coefficients are copied). parent and info are passed by reference

degenerate(eps=1e-08)

Find degenerate coefficients with a specified precision

Parameters

eps (float, optional) – the precision above which coefficients are not considered degenerate

Returns

a list of indices

Return type

list of numpy.ndarray

property dkind

The data-type of the coefficient (in str)

property dtype

Data-type for the coefficients

property eig

Eigenvalues

info
iter(asarray=False)

An iterator looping over the coefficients in this system

Parameters

asarray (bool, optional) – if true the yielded values are the coefficient vectors, i.e. a numpy array. Otherwise an equivalent object is yielded.

Yields
  • coeff (Coefficent) – the current coefficent as an object, only returned if asarray is false.

  • coeff (numpy.ndarray) – the current the coefficient as an array, only returned if asarray is true.

occupation(distribution='fermi_dirac')[source]

Calculate the occupations for the states according to a distribution function

Parameters

distribution (str or func, optional) – distribution used to find occupations

Returns

len(self) with occupation values

Return type

numpy.ndarray

parent
remove(idx, inplace=False)

Return a new coefficient without the specified coefficients

Parameters
  • idx (int or array_like) – indices that are removed in the returned object

  • inplace (bool, optional) – whether the values will be removed inplace

Returns

a new coefficient without containing the requested elements

Return type

Coefficient

property shape

Returns the shape of the coefficients

sub(idx, inplace=False)

Return a new coefficient with only the specified coefficients

Parameters
  • idx (int or array_like) – indices that are retained in the returned object

  • inplace (bool, optional) – whether the values will be retained inplace

Returns

a new coefficient only containing the requested elements, only if inplace is false

Return type

Coefficient
