W2K database: documentation

The W2K database holds DFT + embedded DMFT results computed with Wien2K and the eDMFT code. Every compound is a directory in /home/mbase/dmft_w2k/dmft_w2k_database/, and its results are read from the output/ subdirectory. The site reads these files directly, so a compound appears in the table as soon as its directory is copied in, and each column links to a plot as soon as the files it needs are present.

Wien2K names its files after the case, which can differ from the directory name (for example K122.* in KFe2As2/). The case name is taken from the *.indmfl file in output/.

Result pages

All plots are interactive: drag to zoom, double-click to reset, click legend entries to hide curves, type exact limits into the min/max boxes, and use Download CSV or the camera icon to save the data or a PNG. The address bar keeps the current selection, so a link reproduces the same view. Data on the imaginary (Matsubara) axis is detected automatically and labelled as such.

ColumnWhat is shownFiles read (in output/)
LDA DOSDFT density of states: total and every projection listed in case.int (per atom and orbital, e.g. Ni1 dz2). case.dos1ev, case.dos2ev, … (columns, left to right, follow the rows of case.int); case.int; case.struct for atom names
LDA OPTDFT optical conductivity Re σxx,yy,zz and absorption. case.absorp (column names from the # Energy [eV] … header)
BANDSDFT band structure along the k-path. When the file carries orbital character, a fat bands option appears. case.bands.agr (xmgrace; ticks and labels from its header) or case.spaghetti_ene + case.klist_band; if only case.spaghetti_ps exists it is shown as an image. .gz files are read too.
DMFT DOSDMFT density of states: total and the correlated projections (a= … L= … in the header), per correlated atom. case.cdos, case.struct, case.indmfl
ΣDMFT self-energy, real and imaginary parts, one curve per independent component. Components are named from case.indmfl (atom + orbital, e.g. Fe t2g); Σ∞ and Edc from the header are listed. sig.inp (# s_oo= […], # Edc= […], then ω, Re Σ1, Im Σ1, Re Σ2, …); case.indmfl, case.struct for labels
GLocal Green's function of each correlated block (cix), real and imaginary parts. case.gc1, case.gc2, … (one per cix; iteration copies such as case.gc1.43.1 are ignored)
ΔHybridization function of each correlated block. case.dlt1, case.dlt2, …
OPTDMFT optical conductivity, one curve per computed direction. Directions are named from the alphaV matrices in dmftopt.in (σxx, (xx+yy)/2, …); without that file the curves are called “column 1, 2, …”.optics/optics.dat, optics/dmftopt.in
PROBValence histogram of each impurity: the probability of finding N electrons on the correlated ion, and the probability of every atomic superstate. ⟨N⟩ is listed. imp.0/Probability.dat, imp.1/…; N of each superstate from imp.N/actqmc.cix
A(k,ω)DMFT spectral function along the k-path (pre-rendered image). akw.png

Input files and references

struct
Wien2K structure file (case.struct): lattice, atoms and their multiplicities. Needed for DMFT DOS, Σ, Δ and PROB labels.
indmfl
eDMFT file defining the correlated atoms and orbitals, the local rotations and the independent self-energy components (case.indmfl).
indmfi
eDMFT file mapping correlated blocks to impurity problems (case.indmfi).
params
eDMFT run parameters (params.dat): impurity solver, Coulomb U and J, double counting, etc. Needed to repeat the calculation.
files
Listing of all input and output files of the calculation.
reference / struct ref
<compound>.ref.html and <compound>_ext_ref.html in the compound directory (not in output/).

Adding a compound

  1. Copy the calculation directory into /home/mbase/dmft_w2k/dmft_w2k_database/<Compound>/, with the results in output/.
  2. Make sure at least case.struct, case.indmfl, sig.inp and case.cdos are present; add the other files from the table above for the other columns.
  3. Optionally add <Compound>.ref.html with the list of references.
  4. Reload the W2K table. Nothing needs to be restarted.

Users can also send finished calculations through Downloads → Submit a calculation; an administrator reviews them and copies them into the database.
