Properties
Tight Binding objects have the following standard properties:
-
Name: a string
-
Cell: {a,b,c} defining the unit cell of the system. a, b and c are vectors of length 3 and define the uni-cell vectors.
-
Atoms: a list of atoms, their positions within the unit cell and their atomic shells (spin-orbitals). Each element has the format {Atom.Name, Atom.Position, {Atom.Shells}}.
-
Hoppings: A list of local and non-local hoppings among spin-orbitals. Each element has the format {spinOrb1, spinOrb1, {a,b,c}, $\{\{t_{\downarrow, \downarrow},t_{\downarrow, \uparrow}\},\{t_{\uparrow, \downarrow}, t_{\uparrow, \uparrow}\}\}$}, where here {a,b,c} is the distance between the two atoms and $\{\{t_{\downarrow, \downarrow},t_{\downarrow, \uparrow}\},\{t_{\uparrow, \downarrow}, t_{\uparrow, \uparrow}\}\}$ defines the hopping matrix elements (in second-quantization language: $ \Sigma t_{\sigma, \sigma'} a^{\dagger}_{\sigma} a_{\sigma'} $)
-
Units: {“2Pi”, “Angstrom”, “Absolute”}
-
NF: number of fermionic modes
