Tight-binding calculations in Mathematica

TBpack

Tight-binding calculations in Mathematica

Installation

• Download the latest release, distributed as a .paclet file, and install it using the PacletInstall function in Mathematica:

   Needs["PacletManager`"]
   PacletInstall["path2paclet"]
  

  Insert path2paclet via Mathematica's Insert → File Path... menu command.

• Evaluate <<TBpack` to load the application into the Mathematica session.

• Test TBpack using AtomicStructure[Nanotube[10, 10]].

• Test MaTeX using MaTeX["x^2"].

  Packages MaTeX by Szabolcs Horvát and CustomTicks by Mark A. Caprio are integral parts of TBpack.

  Compilation to C code is used in TBpack to speed up optical absorption spectra calculations. See how to make Mathematica working with C compiler on Windows. If compiler is not available Mathematica will run uncompiled function.

• Open the documentation center and search for "Hamiltonian" to get started.

Supporting the project

TBpack is free to use and distribute and will stay so. However, since it is developed in my own time consider supporting the project to help me to explain my wife why I should spend our weekends on this :)
