sisl.io.siesta.pdosSileSiesta

class sisl.io.siesta.pdosSileSiesta(filename, mode='r', comment=None, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: sisl.io.siesta.SileSiesta

Projected DOS file with orbital information

Data file containing the PDOS as calculated by Siesta.

Methods

dir_file([filename, filename_base])

File of the current Sile

read(*args, **kwargs)

Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes

read_data([as_dataarray])

Returns data associated with the PDOS file

read_geometry()

Read the geometry with coordinates and correct orbital counts

write(*args, **kwargs)

Generic write method which should be overloaded in child-classes

base_file

File of the current Sile

file

File of the current Sile

__init__(filename, mode='r', comment=None, *args, **kwargs)
property base_file

File of the current Sile

dir_file(filename=None, filename_base='')

File of the current Sile

property file

File of the current Sile

read(*args, **kwargs)

Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters

kwargs – keyword arguments will try and search for the attribute read_<> and call it with the remaining **kwargs as arguments.

read_data(as_dataarray=False)[source]

Returns data associated with the PDOS file

For spin-polarized calculations the returned values are up/down, orbitals, energy. For non-collinear calculations the returned values are sum/x/y/z, orbitals, energy.

Parameters

as_dataarray (bool, optional) – If True the returned PDOS is a xarray.DataArray with energy, spin and orbital information as coordinates in the data. The geometry, unit and Fermi level are stored as attributes in the DataArray.

Returns

  • geom (Geometry instance with positions, atoms and orbitals.)

  • E (the energies at which the PDOS has been evaluated at (if Fermi-level present in file energies are shifted to \(E - E_F = 0\)).)

  • PDOS (an array of DOS with dimensions (nspin, geom.no, len(E)) (with different spin-components) or (geom.no, len(E)) (spin-symmetric).)

  • DataArray (if as_dataarray is True, only this data array is returned, in this case all data can be post-processed using the xarray selection routines.)

read_geometry()[source]

Read the geometry with coordinates and correct orbital counts

write(*args, **kwargs)

Generic write method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters

**kwargs – keyword arguments will try and search for the attribute write_ and call it with the remaining **kwargs as arguments.
