wulfric.cell.SC_TET

wulfric.cell.SC_TET(a: float, c: float)

Constructs primitive tetragonal cell as defined in [1].

\[\begin{split}\begin{matrix} \boldsymbol{a}_1 &=& (a, &0, &0)\\ \boldsymbol{a}_2 &=& (0, &a, &0)\\ \boldsymbol{a}_3 &=& (0, &0, &c) \end{matrix}\end{split}\]

Parameters:

afloat

Length of the first two lattice vectors of the conventional cell.

cfloat

Length of the third lattice vector of the conventional cell.

Returns:

cell(3, 3) numpy.ndarray

Matrix of a primitive cell, rows are interpreted as vectors.

cell = [
    [a1_x, a1_y, a1_z],
    [a2_x, a2_y, a2_z],
    [a3_x, a3_y, a3_z],
]
