GTTbHamiltonianOnsite

GTTbHamiltonianOnsite[hamiltonian,basis,structure] introduces the crystal-field splitting in hamiltonian constructed with basis for structure.

DetailsDetails

  • During automatic generation of two-center tight-binding Hamiltonians the crystal field splittings are not taken into account, i.e. for cubic structures only one on-site parameter (dd0) occurs for the d-level. GTTbHamiltonianOnsite allows to substitute (dd0) by two parameters (dd1) corresponding to t_(2g) orbitals  and (dd2) corresponding to e_g orbitals. Corrections are also possibel for hcp structure.
  • Note, in the moment the module works only for Hamiltonians with spd-basis.
  • Parameter values for the one-site energies with crystal-field splitting are given in the "Handbook of the Band Sttructure of Elemental Solids". The splitted on-site parameters are provided in the database TB_Handbook. If the Hamiltonian is modified accordingly, the parametrization uses the correct parameters automatically.
