Dear SIESTers, I will like to share with you this information about a recent paper describing a Graphical User Interface ready to use with our beloved SIESTA:
GUI4dft-A SIESTA oriented GUI Computer Physics Communications 262 (2021) 1078 DOI: [image: image.png] https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpc.2021.1078430 <https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpc.2021.1078430?fbclid=IwAR1zmhbjOc1S2EOo0vYO2RrIaAoRH6LS99PzQSyxUCY60-BcEUf8RUy4Lmo> Abstract. The Graphical User Interface for Density Functional Theory (GUI4dft) is a new software for users ofSIESTA. It is a free cross-platform software with a graphical user interface. GUI4dft allows the user towork with standard SIESTA files and prepare manuscript-quality figures of the atomic structure andproperties such as three-dimensional charge density distributions, DOS, PDOS, and band structure. GUI4dft is written in Python language and falls under an MIT license. Program summary Program title: GUI4dft.
