::pwtk::pwi::supercell_fccHKL

SYNOPSIS

proc ::pwtk::pwi::supercell_fccHKL {args} {

USAGE

   ::pwtk::pwi::supercell_fccHKL  ?-alat1x1 ALAT?  ?-nk1 NK1?  ?-kshift "S1 S2 S2"?  ?-adsize SIZE_BOHR?  ?-vacuum VACUUM_SPECS?  hkl  supercell  Nlayers

PURPOSE

Generate CELL_PARAMETERS and K_POINTS for a supercell of the fcc(hkl) slab. Set also dipole correction if so requested by the -vacuum option (see below).

It is assumed that the slab is oriented along the XY plane and Z is the surface normal direction.

BEWARE

All lengths are in Bohr units!

OPTIONS

Further explanation of the -vacuum option:

* if "vacuum-specs" is a single number, it corresponds to the vacuum thickness, i.e.:

       -vacuum 16.0

* if "vacuum-specs" is a list with 3 numbers, it corresponds to

   "vac1st diplayer vac2nd" (see ::pwtk::pwi::dipoleCorr), i.e.:
       -vacuum {15.0 2.0 16.0}   
   In this case dipole correction is switched on. If any of vac1st,
   diplayer, or vac2nd is an empty string, the corresponding default value is used.

ARGUMENTS

In addition to the math::linearalgebra form, the supercell can be specified in the diagonal NxM or in the a1.b1_a2.b2 notation. The latter corresponds to the following expansion matrix: {{a1 b1} {a2 b2}}
