TBtrans \(\delta\) file object
The \(\delta\) file object is an extension enabled in TBtrans which allows changing the Hamiltonian in transport problems.
\[\mathbf H'(\mathbf k) = \mathbf H(\mathbf k) + \delta\mathbf H(E, \mathbf k) + \delta\mathbf\Sigma(E, \mathbf k)\]This file may either be used directly as the \(\delta\mathbf H\) or the \(\delta\mathbf\Sigma\).
When writing \(\delta\) terms using
write_delta
one may addk
orE
arguments to make the \(\delta\) dependent onk
and/orE
.Refer to the TBtrans manual on how to use this feature.
Examples
>>> H = Hamiltonian(geom.graphene(), dtype=np.complex128) >>> H[0, 0] = 1j >>> dH = get_sile('deltaH.dH.nc', 'w') >>> dH.write_delta(H) >>> H[1, 1] = 1. >>> dH.write_delta(H, k=[0, 0, 0]) # Gamma only >>> H[0, 0] += 1. >>> dH.write_delta(H, E=1.) # only at 1 eV >>> H[1, 1] += 1.j >>> dH.write_delta(H, E=1., k=[0, 0, 0]) # only at 1 eV and Gamma-point

- iter(group=True, dimension=True, variable=True, levels=- 1, root=None)
Iterator on all groups, variables and dimensions.
This iterator iterates through all groups, variables and dimensions in the
Dataset
The generator sequence will _always_ be:
Group
Dimensions in group
Variables in group
As the dimensions are generated before the variables it is possible to copy groups, dimensions, and then variables such that one always ensures correct dependencies in the generation of a new
SileCDF
.- Parameters
group (
bool
(True)) – whether the iterator yields Group instancesdimension (
bool
(True)) – whether the iterator yields Dimension instancesvariable (
bool
(True)) – whether the iterator yields Variable instanceslevels (
int
(-1)) – number of levels to traverse, with respect toroot
variable, i.e. number of sub-groups this iterator will return.root (
str
(None)) – the base root to start iterating from.
Examples
Script for looping and checking each instance.
>>> for gv in self.iter(): ... if self.isGroup(gv): ... # is group ... elif self.isDimension(gv): ... # is dimension ... elif self.isVariable(gv): ... # is variable
- plot
Handles all plotting possibilities for a class
- 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.
- to_json()
- 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.
- write_delta(delta, **kwargs)[source]
Writes a \(\delta\) Hamiltonian to the file
This term may be of
level-1: no E or k dependence
level-2: k-dependent
level-3: E-dependent
level-4: k- and E-dependent
- Parameters
delta (SparseOrbitalBZSpin) – the model to be saved in the NC file
k (array_like, optional) – a specific k-point \(\delta\) term. I.e. only save the \(\delta\) term for the given k-point. May be combined with E for a specific k and energy point.
E (float, optional) – an energy dependent \(\delta\) term. I.e. only save the \(\delta\) term for the given energy. May be combined with k for a specific k and energy point.
