sisl.io.dftb.hamrealSileDFTB

class sisl.io.dftb.hamrealSileDFTB(filename, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: _realSileDFTB

Methods

base_directory([relative_to])

Retrieve the base directory of the file, relative to the path relative_to

close()

dir_file([filename, filename_base])

File of the current Sile

read(*args, **kwargs)

Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes

read_hamiltonian([geometry])

Parse the output Hamiltonian created by DFTB+

read_overlap([geometry])

Parse the overlap matrix from the overreal.dat file

write(*args, **kwargs)

Generic write method which should be overloaded in child-classes

base_file

File of the current Sile

file

File of the current Sile

__init__(filename, mode='r', *args, **kwargs)

Just to pass away the args and kwargs

base_directory(relative_to='.')

Retrieve the base directory of the file, relative to the path relative_to

property base_file

File of the current Sile

close()
dir_file(filename=None, filename_base='')

File of the current Sile

property file

File of the current Sile

read(*args, **kwargs)

Generic read method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters:

kwargs – keyword arguments will try and search for the attribute read_<> and call it with the remaining **kwargs as arguments.

read_hamiltonian(geometry: Geometry | None = None) Hamiltonian[source]

Parse the output Hamiltonian created by DFTB+

This will automatically try to discover the hamreal[1-4].dat and overreal.dat files in the current directory. As such the single file read is not really done.

Parameters:

geometry (Geometry | None) – define the geometry of the Hamiltonian. The data files does not contain the geometry information. Hence it can be very useful to retrieve the geometry from somewhere else.

Return type:

Hamiltonian

read_overlap(geometry: Geometry | None = None) Overlap[source]

Parse the overlap matrix from the overreal.dat file

Parameters:

geometry (Geometry | None) – define the geometry of the Hamiltonian. The data files does not contain the geometry information. Hence it can be very useful to retrieve the geometry from somewhere else.

Return type:

Overlap

write(*args, **kwargs)

Generic write method which should be overloaded in child-classes

Parameters:

**kwargs – keyword arguments will try and search for the attribute write_ and call it with the remaining **kwargs as arguments.
