| The idea is to take this project as far as you can beyond the minimum specified above. You will need to decide on an interesting system to calculate (talk to me and others about what is feasible). You always start by reproducing the work of others, and then go on to explore by yourself. You'll learn much about the system you have chosen, so present these findings. You will also turn in a 3-5 page summary of the project, stressing the intellectual content. This summary should explain (i) what you have learned about band structure calculations during this process, and (ii) explain what is topical and interesting about your material in somewhat greater detail than you poster. Include references about both sub-parts. | The idea is to take this project as far as you can beyond the minimum specified above.
