LH{ }

Calling sequence

classical{ LH{ } }

Properties

  • usage: \(\mathrm{\textcolor{Dandelion}{conditional}}\)

  • items: \(\mathrm{maximum\;1}\)

Dependencies
Functionality

By calling this group, a light-hole valence band with maximum at \(\Gamma\) point becomes available in the model. This band is referred to as LH in output files.

Example
classical{
    Gamma{}
    LH{}
}

Nested keywords

output_bandedge{ }

Calling sequence

classical{ LH{ output_bandedge{ } } }

Properties

  • usage: \(\mathrm{\textcolor{ForestGreen}{optional\;within\;the\;group}}\)

  • items: \(\mathrm{maximum\;1}\)

Functionality

Output minimum (band edge) of this band as energy profile in a single file [eV].

Example
classical{
    LH{
        output_bandedge{}
    }
    Gamma{}
}

output_bandedge{ averaged }

Calling sequence

classical{ LH{ output_bandedge{ averaged } } }

Properties

  • usage: \(\mathrm{\textcolor{ForestGreen}{optional\;within\;the\;group}}\)

  • type: \(\mathrm{choice}\)

  • choices: yes; no

  • default: no

Functionality

If set to yes then, for each grid point, the energy profile will be averaged between neighboring material grid points. If set to no then abrupt discontinuities at interfaces are visible in the output files (in 1D two points, in 2D four points, in 3D eight points for each grid point).

Example
classical{
    LH{
        output_bandedge{
            averaged = yes
        }
    }
    Gamma{}
}
