SrTiO3

In this example, we extract the self-energies and Eliashberg function from a 2DEL in the \(d_{xy}\) bands on the \(\rm{TiO}_{2}\)-terminated surface of \(\rm{SrTiO}_3\).

The following cell instantiates band map class object based on the Igor Binary Wave (ibw) file. The subsequent cell illustrates how a band map object could be instantiated with NumPy arrays instead. Only one of the cells will have to be executed to populate the band map object.

Note on interactive figures

  • The interactive figure might not work inside the Jupyter notebooks, despite our best efforts to ensure stability.

  • As a fallback, the user may switch from “%matplotlib widget” to “%matplotlib qt”, after which the figure should pop up in an external window.

  • For some package versions, a static version of the interactive widget may spuriously show up inside other cells. In that case, uncomment the #get_ipython()… line in the first cell for your notebooks.

Note on the self-energy assignment

  • The user has to explicitly assign the peaks as left-hand or right-hand side.

  • In theory, one could incorporate such information in a minus sign of the peak position.

  • However, this would also require setting boundaries for the fitting range.

  • Instead, the user is advised to carefully check correspondence of peak maxima with MDC fitting results.
