Code simulating various various STM techniques, especially for tilting tips (depending on ProkopHapala/ProbeParticleModel ) This is implementation of efficient and simple model for simulation of High-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Normall STM simulations using Chen's approximattion is part of the code as well
BEWARE - latest numpy is probably causing problems within the code, the we have noticed problem with trying to run examples with periodic boundary conditions recently.
BEWARE - after repairing misteake in d-orbitals the results for FePc are different. We are investigating it.
currently developed Python3/C++ version of the PPSTM code:
pip install ppafm>=0.2.0a3
.For easy introduction to this code and its functionalities, try Graphic User Interface (GUI) or PPSTM_simple.py script.
Documentation is here at Wiki.
It can also simulate IETS images of molecules, if the imaging mechanism is driven by the amplitude of the IETS peak.
