Plotting fermi3d isovalue_gif

Symmetry does not currently work! Make sure for fermi surface calculations turn off symmetry

Plotting fermi3d isovalue_gif example.

First download the example files with the code below. Then replace data_dir below.

Downloading example

 data_dir = pyprocar.download_example(save_dir='',
                             material='Fe',
                             code='qe',
                             spin_calc_type='non-spin-polarized',
                             calc_type='fermi')

# sphinx_gallery_thumbnail_number = 1

import pyvista

# You do not need this. This is to ensure an image is rendered off screen when generating exmaple gallery.
pyvista.OFF_SCREEN = True

importing pyprocar and specifying local data_dir

import os

import pyprocar

data_dir = os.path.join(
    pyprocar.utils.DATA_DIR, "examples", "Fe", "qe", "non-spin-polarized", "fermi"
)

# First create the FermiHandler object, this loads the data into memory. Then you can call class methods to plot
# Symmetry only works for specfic space groups currently.
# For the actual calculations turn off symmetry and set 'apply_symmetry'=False
fermiHandler = pyprocar.FermiHandler(code="qe", dirname=data_dir, apply_symmetry=True)

                WARNING : Fermi Energy not set! Set `fermi={value}`. By default, using fermi energy found in given directory.

# iso_range will be the energy range around the fermi level. 2 would search 1 ev above and below.
iso_range = 2

# iso_surface will generate 5 surfaces equally space throughout the range.
iso_surfaces = 5

# Instead of iso_range and iso_surfaces, you can specify exact energy values to generate isosurfaces
iso_values = [-1, -0.5, 0.25, 1, 5]

fermiHandler.create_isovalue_gif(
    iso_range=iso_range,
    iso_surfaces=iso_surfaces,
    save_gif="isovalue_gif.gif",
    mode="plain",
)

                --------------------------------------------------------
                There are additional plot options that are defined in a configuration file.
                You can change these configurations by passing the keyword argument to the function
                To print a list of plot options set print_plot_opts=True

                Here is a list modes : plain , parametric , spin_texture , overlay
                Here is a list of properties: fermi_speed , fermi_velocity , harmonic_effective_mass
