Fleur dos/band workflows

Warning

These workchains do not work with AiiDA 1.1.1 version yet. They need to be updated.

These are two seperate workflows which are pretty similar so we treat them here together

  • Class: fleur_dos_wc and FleurBandWorkChain
  • String to pass to the WorkflowFactory(): fleur.dos, fleur.band
  • Workflow type: Workflow (lv 1)
  • Aim: Calculate a density of states. Calculate a Band structure.
  • Compuational demand: 1 Fleur Job calculation
  • Database footprint: Outputnode with information, full provenance, ~ 10 nodes
  • File repository footprint: The JobCalculation run, plus the DOS or Bandstructure files
  • Additional Info: Use alone.

Import Example:

from aiida_fleur.workflows.dos import fleur_dos_wc
#or
WorkflowFactory('fleur.dos')

from aiida_fleur.workflows.band import FleurBandWorkChain
#or
WorkflowFactory('fleur.band')

Description/Purpose

DOS:

Calculates an Density of states (DOS) ontop of a given Fleur calculation (converged or not).

Band:

Calculates an electronic band structure ontop of a given Fleur calculation (converged or not).

In the future we plan to add the posibility to converge a calculation before, and choose the kpaths automatic. This version should be able start simply from a crystal structure.

Each of these workflows prepares/chances the Fleur input and manages one Fleur calculation.

Input nodes:

  • fleur (Code): Fleur code using the fleur.fleur plugin
  • wf_parameters (Dict, optional): Some settings of the workflow behavior (e.g. number of kpoints, path, energy sampling and smearing, …)
  • fleurinp (FleurinpData, path 2): Fleur input data object representing the fleur input files.
  • remote_data (RemoteData, optional): The remote folder of the (converged) calculation whose output density is used as input for the DOS, or band structure run.
  • options (Dict, optional): All options available in AiiDA, i.e resource specification, queue name, extras scheduler commands, …
  • settings (Dict, optional): special settings for Fleur calculations, will be given like it is through to calculationss.

Returns nodes

  • output_dos_wc_para (Dict): Information of the dos workflow results like success, last result node, list with convergence behavior
  • output_band_wc_para (Dict): Information node from the band workflow
  • last_fleur_calc_output (Dict) Output node of last Fleur calculation is returned.

Database Node graph

Plot_fleur visualization

Single node

from aiida_fleur.tools.plot import plot_fleur

# DOS calc
plot_fleur(76867)
../../_images/dos_plot.png

For the bandstructure visualization it depends on the File produced. Old bandstructure file:

../../_images/bandstructure.png

Bandstructure `band_dos.hdf` file with l-like charge information: Band resolved bandstructure and fat-bands for the different channels. Spin and combinded DOS plus band structure visualizations are in progress…

../../_images/band_s_like.png
../../_images/band_p_like.png
../../_images/band_d_like.png
../../_images/band_f_like.png

Multi node just does a bunch of single plots for now.

from aiida_fleur.tools.plot import plot_fleur

plot_fleur(dos_pk_list)

Error handling

Still has to be documented

Warning if parent calculation was not converged.
