Questions about 2D fermi surface with QE #148

Open SubeenLim opened 3 weeks ago

SubeenLim commented 3 weeks ago

Dear developer,

Hi, I'm interested in topological semimetals(weyl semimetals), so I want to plot the surface states(fermi arc) using the QE and pyprocar. In the Example about fermi 2D, it says parametric mode is disabled, is this true? I want to project surface atom. If parametric mode is possible, Is there any tips about how to use the atomic projections?

And, Is it possible to see fermi arc states through pyprocar code?

Hey SubeemLim,

Thank you for reaching out and your interest in using our tools for your research on topological semimetals.

Regarding the parametric mode mentioned in our documentation, we realized there was an oversight and the documentation had not been updated to reflect the latest capabilities. The parametric mode is indeed enabled now, and you should be able to project surface atoms as required. We apologize for the confusion and have updated the documentation to prevent future misunderstandings.

If you have any further questions or require more detailed guidance, please feel free to ask.

Best regards, Logan Lang
