Function Documentation

load_BORN()

std::unique_ptr< Dielectric_parameters > alma::load_BORN

(

const char *

filename

)

Create a Dielectric_parameters object from a Phonopy BORN file.

Note that the first line is ignored and VASP's default units are assumed.

Parameters

[in]

filename

- path to the BORN file

Returns

a Dielectric_parameters object containing all the information in the BORN file.

load_FORCE_CONSTANTS()

std::unique_ptr< Harmonic_ifcs > alma::load_FORCE_CONSTANTS	(	const char *	filename,
		const Crystal_structure &	cell,
		const int	na,
		const int	nb,
		const int	nc
	)

Create a Harmonic_ifcs object from the information stored in a Phonopy FORCE_CONSTANTS file.

Parameters

[in]	filename	- path to the FORCE_CONSTANTS file
[in]	cell	- description of the unit cell
[in]	na	- number of unit cells along the first axis
[in]	nb	- number of unit cells along the second axis
[in]	nc	- number of unit cells along the third axis

Returns

a Harmonic_ifcs object with the structure contained in the file.

load_FORCE_CONSTANTS_3RD()

std::unique_ptr< std::vector< Thirdorder_ifcs > > alma::load_FORCE_CONSTANTS_3RD	(	const char *	filename,
		const Crystal_structure &	cell
	)

Create a std::vector of Thirdorder_ifcs objects from a FORCE_CONSTANTS_3RD file.

The format of the file is described in the ShengBTE documentation.

Parameters

[in]	filename	- path to the BORN file
[in]	cell	- description of the unit cell

Returns

a std::vector of Thirdorder_ifcs objects containing all the information in the file.

load_FORCE_CONSTANTS_raw()

Eigen::ArrayXXd alma::load_FORCE_CONSTANTS_raw

(

const char *

filename

)

Load the data in a FORCE_CONSTANTS file and return it as a raw matrix.

Parameters

[in]

filename

- path to the FORCE_CONSTANTS file

Returns

a matrix with the force constants in the file. Each row or column corresponds to a degree of freedom, with atom indices running slower than coordinates.

load_POSCAR()

std::unique_ptr< Crystal_structure > alma::load_POSCAR

(

const char *

filename

)

Build a Crystal_structure object from a VASP POSCAR file.

Parameters

[in]

filename

- path to the POSCAR file

Returns

a Crystal_structure object with the structure contained in the file
