Inheritance

Slots

Name Cardinality and Range Description Inheritance
smearing_method *
String
Electronic smearing scheme and width used in the SCF calculation
(e.g. Methfessel-Paxton order 1 with sigma=0.2 eV, Gaussian with sigma=0.05 eV).
direct
spin_polarized *
Boolean
Whether the electronic structure calculation is spin-polarized
(accounts for spin-up and spin-down electrons separately).
direct
band_path *
String
High-symmetry k-path through the Brillouin zone used to plot the
band structure (e.g. "Gamma-X-M-Gamma-R" for cubic, following SeeK-path convention).
direct
fermi_energy *
Float
Fermi energy (chemical potential of electrons) in the calculated system. direct
material_composition *
String
Chemical composition of the simulated material (e.g. "Fe2O3", "Pt/CeO2").
Use empirical formula or SMILES for molecular systems.
MaterialDescriptorMixin
crystal_structure *
String
Crystal structure of the simulated material, including space group and
lattice parameters (e.g. "Fm-3m, a=3.92 Å for Pt").
MaterialDescriptorMixin
energy_cutoff *
Float
Plane-wave kinetic energy cutoff for the basis set expansion. DFTSettingsMixin
convergence_criteria *
String
Convergence thresholds applied during self-consistent field (SCF) and/or
geometry optimisation (e.g. energy < 1e-5 eV, forces < 0.02 eV/Å).
DFTSettingsMixin
k_point_mesh *
String
Monkhorst-Pack k-point mesh used for Brillouin zone sampling
(e.g. "4×4×1" for a surface slab, "8×8×8" for a bulk cell).
