<p align="center">Scientific Python package for solving Slater Koster tight-binding hamiltonian. A python package in development for creating and solving slater koster tight-binding hamiltonians for various 1D 2D and 3D systems from topological insulators to strong correlations.</p>


## Documentation

Documentation can be found at [https://pysktb.readthedocs.io](https://pysktb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)

## Features

  - Generate s,p,d interactions in any given lattice
  - Total energy *for insulators and semimetals*
  - Specify range of interaction with more then Nearest neibghor
  - Spin Polarized calculations
  - Spin orbit coupling *(only for p orbitals as of now)*
  - Plot orbital weighted colorplots
  - Integration with [pymatgen](https://pymatgen.org) structres 
  - JIT optimized with numba
  - Parallelization on kpoints

## Installation
```console
pip install pysktb
```

## Optimized 
  - with `jit`

- Parallelized over k
<img src="./docs/source/examples/data/pysktb_parallel.png" height="200" >

## Features to be added
   - Complete pymatgen integration (high on priority)
   - Berry phase calculation (high on priority) *already implemented need to interface*
   - ~Parallelization on kpoints~ and orbitals.
   - ~scipy sparse matrix optimized~
   - Spin Orbit Coupling for d,f
   - Bogoliubov-de-Gennes (BdG) solutions for the given system for Superconductivity 
   - Interface with [ASE](https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/) structures
   - Create finite structures and slabs for Topological calculations within the code *(requires pymatgen right now)*
   - Greens function DOS
   - Convert all operations to sympy, so that one can output analytical Tightbinding matrix elements for ease of access 
   - Low energy k.p hamiltonian from sympy
