ICN2 OPEN KNOWLEDGE PROGRAM - MODULE 8

\ n

By Dr Ramón Cuadrado\, Theory and Simulation Group\, ICN2

\n

This module of the Open Knowle dge Programme will outline how to perform first principles calculations of any magnetic/nonmagnetic system in which spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is rel evant using the SIESTA code. This will allow you to describe the influence of SOC on the electronic structure of the materials\, extracting differen t properties from the SIESTA output files. You will also acquire a basic k nowledge of the theoretical models on which the calculations are based. &n bsp\;
