Band Structure Computation

Basic band structure computation is accomplished with the Wien 2k code available on the Jansen server. The basics of using Wien 2k are on the PH575 course wiki. Other band structure programs, VASP and FLAIR, are available for use after tutoring from Prof. Guenter Schneider and his group. Experimentalists should be able to compute a basic band structure of a simple material and be knowledgeable about the language used.
