Roadmap on Machine learning in electronic structure

Heather J. Kulik, Thomas Hammerschmidt, Jonathan Schmidt et al. · 21 Feb 2022

Abstract In recent years, we have been witnessing a paradigm shift in computational materials science. In fact, traditional methods, mostly developed in the second half of the XXth century, are being complemented, extended, and sometimes even completely replaced by faster, simpler, and often more accurate approaches. The new approaches, that we collectively label by machine…

The physical significance of imaginary phonon modes in crystals

Ioanna Pallikara, Prakriti Kayastha, Jonathan M. Skelton et al. · 14 Jun 2022

Abstract The lattice vibrations (phonon modes) of crystals underpin a large number of material properties. The harmonic phonon spectrum of a solid is the simplest description of its structural dynamics and can be straightforwardly derived from the Hellman–Feynman forces obtained in a ground-state electronic structure calculation. The presence of imaginary harmonic modes in the spectrum…

Bethe–Salpeter equation for absorption and scattering spectroscopy: implementation in the exciting code

Christian Vorwerk, Benjamin Aurich, Caterina Cocchi et al. · 11 Jul 2019

Abstract The Bethe–Salpeter equation for the electron–hole correlation function is the state-of-the-art formalism for optical and core spectroscopy in condensed matter. Solutions of this equation yield the full dielectric response, including both the absorption and the inelastic scattering spectra. Here, we present an efficient implementation within the all-electron full-potential code exciting , which employs the…

Twistronics: a turning point in 2D quantum materials

Zachariah Hennighausen, Swastik Kar · 8 Jan 2021

Abstract Moiré superlattices— periodic orbital overlaps and lattice-reconstruction between sites of high atomic registry in vertically-stacked 2D layered materials —are quantum-active interfaces where non-trivial quantum phases on novel phenomena can emerge from geometric arrangements of 2D materials, which are not intrinsic to the parent materials. Unexpected distortions in band-structure and topology lead to long-range correlations,…

Electronic structure of cesium-based photocathode materials from density functional theory: performance of PBE, SCAN, and HSE06 functionals

Holger‐Dietrich Saßnick, Caterina Cocchi · 24 Apr 2021

Abstract The development of novel materials for vacuum electron sources in particle accelerators is an active field of research that can greatly benefit from the results of ab initio calculations for the characterization of the electronic structure of target systems. As state-of-the-art many-body perturbation theory calculations are too expensive for large-scale material screening, density functional…

Electronic Structure template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Electronic Structure format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Electronic Structure template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IOP Publishing format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Electronic Structure use?
Electronic Structure uses Numbered (IOP) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] Smith A, Jones B and Lee C 2023 A representative article title Electronic Structure 12 45–58
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Electronic Structure?
No. DocuGuru generates the iopjournal LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IOP Publishing-ready Electronic Structure document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Electronic Structure template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Electronic Structure format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Electronic Structure?
IOP Publishing journal. It is a physics journal, published by IOP Publishing.
Can I export a submission-ready Electronic Structure PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Electronic Structure template (the iopjournal class) that is ready to submit to IOP Publishing, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Electronic Structure template cost?
You can start writing in the Electronic Structure template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Electronic Structure PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
