A Python tool for visualizing atomic systems and properties of condensed matter.
Project description
# XtraCrysPy A Python tool for visualizing atomic systems and properties of condensed matter.
Features: - Plot molecular systems with minimal setup - Plot systems from DFT input- or output- files - Interact with the system to caluclate distances, angles, or receive atomic information - Display relaxation steps from QE relax output files - Display reciprocal space features - Plot real space iso-surfaces (charge density, etc) - Plot reciprocal iso-surfaces (Fermi surface, spin-texture, etc) - Band structure and DoS plots from QE or PAOFLOW data - Electron Transport plots from PAOFLOW data
Supported File Types: - Quantum ESPRESSO input or output - POSCAR - CIF (in progress) - XSF - BXSF (coming soon)
Requirements: - python 3.8 - numpy 1.19 - matplotlib 3.5 - [fury 0.8](https://github.com/fury-gl/fury)
Installation (only use –user if you do not have permission to install python packages): - python setup.py install - python setup.py install –user
Usage:
- Display an atomic model from inputfile, with the examples/main.py script:
python main.py <inputfile>
- Control Inputs:
‘u’ : Toggle UI visibility ‘a’ : Toggle Axis visibility SHIFT + ‘s’ : Take snapshot CTRL + ‘w’ : Exit
See examples directory for crystal and Brillouin zone plotting:
- From scratch:
python caffeine.py python silicon_fcc.py
- From inputfile (with main.py script):
python main.py <inputfile> python main.py <inputfile> <bond_length>
- From inputfile (programmatic):
python SnTe_2D.py python example_cif.py python example_qe_in.py python example_poscar.py
- Relax QE outputfile:
python example_relax.py
- Charge Density:
python example_charge_density.py
- Reciprocal Space:
python example_BZ.py
- Fermi Surfaces:
python example_fermi_surface1.py python example_fermi_surface2.py python example_fermi_surface_clip.py python example_colored_fermi_surface.py python example_textured_fermi_surface_clip.py
