Methods

__init__()

eval([label_i, spin_i, label_j, spin_j])

Evaluate the matrix element <i,s_i|l*s|j,s_j>.

print_soc_table([spin_i, spin_j])

Print SOC terms between orbital basis functions, for generating the coefficients in 'SOCTable' class.

__init__() None
eval(label_i: str = 's', spin_i: str = 'up', label_j: str = 's', spin_j: str = 'down') complex

Evaluate the matrix element <i,s_i|l*s|j,s_j>. :param label_i: orbital label of bra :param spin_i: spin direction of bra :param label_j: orbital label of ket :param spin_j: spin direction of ket :return: matrix element in hbar**2

print_soc_table(spin_i: str = 'up', spin_j: str = 'up') None

Print SOC terms between orbital basis functions, for generating the coefficients in ‘SOCTable’ class. :param spin_i: spin direction of bra :param spin_j: spin direction kf ket :return: None
