[WIP] Implementation of quasi-harmonic approximation #891
Conversation
@esoteric-ephemera I am adding you as a collaborator to my repo so that you can contribute at a later stage, if you would like to. I would be especially happy about feedback on the EOS - phonon connection. I will try to reuse us much code from the normal EOS fits as possible. |
@esoteric-ephemera Never mind. I think I realized how to use the class correctly without using the make functionality ;). Sorry about this! |
@esoteric-ephemera I think I will also directly use the phonopy api (https://github.com/phonopy/phonopy/blob/develop/phonopy/api_qha.py) to avoid redundant reimplementations. However, this will make different eos available for the qha than in the normal eos fit. @utf do you think this would be an issue? |
ToDo:
|
I am closing this and reopen. Something seems to be messed up with the tests. |
Summary
One way to compute thermodynamic properties of materials is by using the quasi-harmonic approximation. This is an attempt to implement this qha based on the EOS Maker and the harmonic phonon runs.
Closes #890
