TightBindingToolkit

Build Status

TightBindingToolkit.jl is a Julia package meant for constructing, and obtaining useful properties of generic tight-binding models. It supports any lattice structure, with any user-defined bonds on that lattice. It also has support for any spin of the particle hopping on the lattice.

Install

In the Julia REPL, Push "]" to enter the package mode.

add TightBindingToolkit

Or equivalently

using Pkg
Pkg.add("TightBindingToolkit")

Features

Currently supported :

  • Custom Unit Cell Construction. (v1.3) : now also supports construction in dimensions upto d=3. Can change primitives, or expand unit cell on the go.
