[docs]class KPoints(PyChemiaJsonable): """ Defines an object that contains information about kpoints mesh There are two mutually exclusive options: Explicit array of kpoints with associated weights OR a specification of a grid with an optional set of shifts. The default is one single kpoint in gamma """ def __init__(self, kmode='gamma', kpoints_list=None, weights=None, shifts=None, grid=None, kvertices=None, intermediates=None): """ The KPoints class is designed to store the description of k-points in a code agnostic way. There are 5 possible kmodes to describe a set of k-points, currently those modes are not interchangable, but that could change in the future. The kmodes are 'cartesian', 'reduced', 'gamma', 'monkhorst-pack' and 'path'. Kmode 'cartesian' and 'reduced' uses explicit declaration of a grid of k-points. In the case of 'cartesian' the points are vectors in k-space. In the case of 'reduced' the points are the factors for the vectors defining the reciprocal lattice. The variable 'kpoints_list' is a numpy array with a shape of ('nkpt', 3) The variable 'weigths' is a numpy array with the weights associated to each point. by default all the weights are equal to 1. Kmode 'gamma' and 'monkhorst-pack' uses an uniform grid to describe the k-points mesh. The variable 'grid' describes the number of points on each dimension an it is a numpy array with 3 values. The variable 'shifts' describe the shift done to the grid according to the mode selected. The internal value 'nkpt' will be simply the product of the three values of the grid. Typically ab-initio packages will try to exclude from that grid equivalent k-points due to symmetry considerations. Kmode 'path' is specially useful for band-structure calculations, in this case the variable 'kvertices' contains all the vertices, usually high symmetry points and the variable 'intermediates' contains the number of k-points created between two consecutive vertices. When a Kpoints object is created without any arguments, the default will be a kmode='gamma', with a grid=[1, 1, 1] and shifts=[0, 0, 0] :param kmode: The options are 'cartesian', 'reduced', 'gamma', 'monkhorst-pack' :param kpoints_list: Explicit list of k-points (Only for 'cartesian' and 'reduced') :param weights: List of weights associated to each k-point (Only for 'cartesian' and 'reduced') :param grid: Number of kpoints on each direction (Only for 'gamma' and 'monkhorst-pack') :param shifts: Shift applied to the grid (Only for 'gamma' and 'monkhorst-pack') :param kvertices: List of vertices for a path of k-points (Only for 'path') :param intermediates: Number of intermediates between two vertices (Only for 'path') :rtype : Kpoints object """ if kmode.lower() not in ['cartesian', 'reduced', 'gamma', 'monkhorst-pack', 'path']: raise ValueError("kmode must be 'cartesian', 'reduced', 'gamma', 'monkhorst-pack' or 'path'") self.kmode = kmode.lower() # All the variables initially None self.kpoints_list = None self.weights = None self.grid = None self.shifts = None self.kvertices = None self.intermediates = None # Explicit list of k-points if self.kmode in ['cartesian', 'reduced']: self.set_kpoints_list(kpoints_list, weights) # Grid specification elif self.kmode in ['gamma', 'monkhorst-pack']: self.set_grid(grid, shifts) # Path along the K-space elif self.kmode == 'path': if kvertices is None: self.kvertices = np.array([[0, 0, 0]]) else: if np.array(kvertices).shape == (3,): self.kvertices = np.array(kvertices).reshape((-1, 3)) elif np.array(kvertices).shape[1] == 3: self.kvertices = np.array(kvertices) else: raise ValueError("Wrong value for kvertices, should be an array with shape (nkpt,3)") if intermediates is None: self.intermediates = 1 else: self.intermediates = int(intermediates)
