site (PeriodicSite) – The defect site in the structure.
multiplicity (int) – The multiplicity of the defect in the structure.

as_dict()[source]

JSON-serializable dict representation of Defect.

Needs to be redefined because attributes not explicitly specified in subclasses, which is required for monty functions.

classmethod from_json(filename: str)[source]

Load a Defect object from a json file.

Parameters:: filename (str) – Filename of json file to load Defect from.
Returns:: Defect object

get_charge_states(padding: int = 1) → list[int][source]: Refactored version of pymatgen-analysis-defects’s get_charge_states to not break when oxi_state is not set.

get_supercell_structure(sc_mat: ndarray | None = None, target_frac_coords: ndarray | None = None, return_sites: bool = False, min_image_distance: float = 10.0, min_atoms: int = 50, force_cubic: bool = False, force_diagonal: bool = False, ideal_threshold: float = 0.1, min_length: float | None = None, dummy_species: str | None = None) → Structure[source]

Generate the simulation supercell for a defect.

Redefined from the parent class to allow the use of target_frac_coords to place the defect at the closest equivalent site to the target fractional coordinates in the supercell, while keeping the supercell fixed (to avoid any issues with defect parsing). Also returns information about equivalent defect sites in the supercell.

If sc_mat is None, then the supercell is generated automatically using the doped algorithm described in the get_ideal_supercell_matrix function docstring in doped.generation.

Parameters:

sc_mat (3x3 matrix) – Transformation matrix of self.structure to create the supercell. If None, then automatically computed using get_ideal_supercell_matrix from doped.generation.
target_frac_coords (3x1 matrix) – If set, the defect will be placed at the closest equivalent site to these fractional coordinates (using self.equivalent_sites).
return_sites (bool) – If True, returns a tuple of the defect supercell, defect supercell site and list of equivalent supercell sites.
dummy_species (str) – Dummy species to highlight the defect position (for visualizing vacancies).
min_image_distance (float) – Minimum image distance in Å of the generated supercell (i.e. minimum distance between periodic images of atoms/sites in the lattice), if sc_mat is None. (Default = 10.0)
min_atoms (int) – Minimum number of atoms allowed in the generated supercell, if sc_mat is None. (Default = 50)
force_cubic (bool) – Enforce usage of CubicSupercellTransformation from pymatgen for supercell generation (if sc_mat is None). (Default = False)
force_diagonal (bool) – If True, return a transformation with a diagonal transformation matrix (if sc_mat is None). (Default = False)
ideal_threshold (float) – Threshold for increasing supercell size (beyond that which satisfies min_image_distance and min_atoms`) to achieve an ideal supercell matrix (i.e. a diagonal expansion of the primitive or conventional cell). Supercells up to 1 + perfect_cell_threshold times larger (rounded up) are trialled, and will instead be returned if they yield an ideal transformation matrix (if sc_mat is None). (Default = 0.1; i.e. 10% larger than the minimum size)
min_length (float) – Same as min_image_distance (kept for compatibility).

Returns:

The defect supercell structure. If return_sites is True, also returns the defect supercell site and list of equivalent supercell sites.

to_json(filename: str | None = None)[source]

Save the Defect object to a json file, which can be reloaded with the `` Defect``.from_json()`` class method.

Parameters:: filename (str) – Filename to save json file as. If None, the filename will be set as “{Defect.name}.json”.

Bases: DefectEntry

Subclass of pymatgen.analysis.defects.thermo.DefectEntry with additional attributes used by doped.

Core Attributes:

defect:: doped/pymatgen defect object corresponding to the defect in the entry.
charge_state:: Charge state of the defect.
sc_entry:: pymatgen ComputedStructureEntry for the defect supercell.
sc_defect_frac_coords:: The fractional coordinates of the defect in the supercell.
bulk_entry:: pymatgen ComputedEntry for the bulk supercell reference. Required for calculating the defect formation energy.
corrections:: A dictionary of energy corrections which are summed and added to the defect formation energy.
corrections_metadata:: A dictionary that acts as a generic container for storing information about how the corrections were calculated. Only used for debugging and plotting purposes.

Parsing Attributes:

calculation_metadata:: A dictionary of calculation parameters and data, used to perform charge corrections and compute formation energies.
degeneracy_factors:: A dictionary of degeneracy factors contributing to the total degeneracy of the defect species (such as spin and configurational degeneracy etc). This is an important factor in the defect concentration equation (see discussion in https://doi.org/10.1039/D2FD00043A and https://doi.org/10.1039/D3CS00432E), and so affects the output of the defect concentration / Fermi level functions. This can be edited by the user if the doped defaults are not appropriate (e.g. doped assumes singlet (S=0) state for even-electron defects and doublet (S=1/2) state for odd-electron defects, which is typically the case but can have triplets (S=1) or other multiplets for e.g. bipolarons, quantum / d-orbital / magnetic defects etc.); see https://doped.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Tips.html#spin-polarisation for discussion.

Generation Attributes:

name:: The doped-generated name of the defect entry. See docstrings of DefectsGenerator for the doped naming algorithm.
conventional_structure:: Conventional cell structure of the host according to the Bilbao Crystallographic Server (BCS) definition, used to determine defect site Wyckoff labels and multiplicities.

equiv_conv_cell_frac_coords:: Symmetry-equivalent defect positions in fractional coordinates of the conventional cell.
_BilbaoCS_conv_cell_vector_mapping:: A vector mapping the lattice vectors of the spglib-defined conventional cell to that of the Bilbao Crystallographic Server definition (for most space groups the definitions are the same).
wyckoff:: Wyckoff label of the defect site.
charge_state_guessing_log:: A log of the input & computed values used to determine charge state probabilities.
defect_supercell:: pymatgen Structure object of the defect supercell.
defect_supercell_site:: pymatgen PeriodicSite object of the defect in the defect supercell.
equivalent_supercell_sites:: List of pymatgen PeriodicSite objects of symmetry-equivalent defect sites in the defect supercell.

as_dict() → dict[source]: Returns a dictionary representation of the DefectEntry object.

bulk_entry: ComputedEntry | None = None

property bulk_site_concentration: Return the site concentration (in cm^-3) of the corresponding atomic site of the defect in the pristine bulk material (e.g. if the defect is V_O in SrTiO3, returns the site concentration of (symmetry-equivalent) oxygen atoms in SrTiO3).

equilibrium_concentration(chempots: dict | None = None, limit: str | None = None, el_refs: dict | None = None, temperature: float = 300, fermi_level: float = 0, vbm: float | None = None, per_site: bool = False, symprec: float | None = None) → float[source]

Compute the equilibrium concentration (in cm^-3) for the DefectEntry at a given chemical potential limit, fermi_level and temperature, assuming the dilute limit approximation.

Note that these are the equilibrium defect concentrations! DefectThermodynamics.get_quenched_fermi_level_and_concentrations() can instead be used to calculate the Fermi level and defect concentrations for a material grown/annealed at higher temperatures and then cooled (quenched) to room/operating temperature (where defect concentrations are assumed to remain fixed) - this is known as the frozen defect approach and is typically the most valid approximation (see its docstring for more information, and discussion in 10.1039/D3CS00432E).

The degeneracy/multiplicity factor “g” is an important parameter in the defect concentration equation (see discussion in https://doi.org/10.1039/D2FD00043A and https://doi.org/10.1039/D3CS00432E), affecting the final concentration by up to 2 orders of magnitude. This factor is taken from the product of the defect_entry.defect.multiplicity and defect_entry.degeneracy_factors attributes.

Parameters:

chempots (dict) –
Dictionary of chemical potentials to use for calculating the defect formation energy (and thus concentration). This can have the form of: {"limits": [{'limit': [chempot_dict]}]} (the format generated by doped's chemical potential parsing functions (see tutorials)) and specific limits (chemical potential limits) can then be chosen using limit.

Alternatively this can be a dictionary of chemical potentials for a single limit (limit), in the format: {element symbol: chemical potential}. If manually specifying chemical potentials this way, you can set the el_refs option with the DFT reference energies of the elemental phases, in which case it is the formal chemical potentials (i.e. relative to the elemental references) that should be given here, otherwise the absolute (DFT) chemical potentials should be given.

If None (default), sets all chemical potentials to 0 (inaccurate formation energies and concentrations!). (Default: None)
limit (str) –
The chemical potential limit for which to calculate the formation energy and thus concentration. Can be either:
- None (default), if chempots corresponds to a single chemical potential limit - otherwise will use the first chemical potential limit in the chempots dict.
- ”X-rich”/”X-poor” where X is an element in the system, in which case the most X-rich/poor limit will be used (e.g. “Li-rich”).
- A key in the (self.)chempots["limits"] dictionary.
The latter two options can only be used if chempots is in the doped format (see chemical potentials tutorial). (Default: None)
el_refs (dict) – Dictionary of elemental reference energies for the chemical potentials in the format: {element symbol: reference energy} (to determine the formal chemical potentials, when chempots has been manually specified as {element symbol: chemical potential}). Unnecessary if chempots is provided/present in format generated by doped (see tutorials). (Default: None)
temperature (float) – Temperature in Kelvin at which to calculate the equilibrium concentration.
vbm (float) – VBM eigenvalue in the bulk supercell, to use as Fermi level reference point for calculating formation energy. If None (default), will use “vbm” from the calculation_metadata dict attribute if present.
fermi_level (float) – Value corresponding to the electron chemical potential, referenced to the VBM. Default is 0 (i.e. the VBM).
per_site (bool) – Whether to return the concentration as fractional concentration per site, rather than the default of per cm^3. Multiply by 100 for concentration in percent. (default: False)
symprec (float) – Symmetry tolerance for spglib to use when determining relaxed defect point symmetries and thus orientational degeneracies. Default is 0.1 which matches that used by the Materials Project and is larger than the pymatgen default of 0.01 (which is used by doped for unrelaxed/bulk structures) to account for residual structural noise in relaxed defect supercells. You may want to adjust for your system (e.g. if there are very slight octahedral distortions etc.). If symprec is set, then the point symmetries and corresponding orientational degeneracy will be re-parsed/computed even if already present in the DefectEntry object calculation_metadata.

Returns:

Concentration in cm^-3 (or as fractional per site, if per_site = True) (float)

equiv_conv_cell_frac_coords: list[ndarray]

equivalent_supercell_sites: list[PeriodicSite]

This can have the form of: {"limits": [{'limit': [chempot_dict]}]} (the format generated by doped's chemical potential parsing functions (see tutorials)) and specific limits (chemical potential limits) can then be chosen using limit.

Alternatively this can be a dictionary of chemical potentials for a single limit (limit), in the format: {element symbol: chemical potential}. If manually specifying chemical potentials this way, you can set the el_refs option with the DFT reference energies of the elemental phases, in which case it is the formal chemical potentials (i.e. relative to the elemental references) that should be given here, otherwise the absolute (DFT) chemical potentials should be given.

If None (default), sets all chemical potentials to zero. (Default: None)
limit (str) –
The chemical potential limit for which to calculate the formation energy. Can be either:
- None (default), if chempots corresponds to a single chemical potential limit - otherwise will use the first chemical potential limit in the chempots dict.
- ”X-rich”/”X-poor” where X is an element in the system, in which case the most X-rich/poor limit will be used (e.g. “Li-rich”).
- A key in the (self.)chempots["limits"] dictionary.
The latter two options can only be used if chempots is in the doped format (see chemical potentials tutorial). (Default: None)
el_refs (dict) – Dictionary of elemental reference energies for the chemical potentials in the format: {element symbol: reference energy} (to determine the formal chemical potentials, when chempots has been manually specified as {element symbol: chemical potential}). Unnecessary if chempots is provided/present in format generated by doped (see tutorials). (Default: None)

classmethod from_dict(d: dict)[source]

Class method to create a DefectEntry object from a dictionary.

Defined to avoid unnecessary vise/pydefect INFO messages.

Parameters:: d (dict) – Dictionary representation of the DefectEntry object.
Returns:: DefectEntry object

classmethod from_json(filename: str)[source]

Load a DefectEntry object from a json file.

Parameters:: filename (str) – Filename of json file to load DefectEntry from.
Returns:: DefectEntry object

Returns information about the band edge and in-gap electronic states and their orbital character / localisation degree for the defect entry, as well as a plot of the single-particle electronic eigenvalues and their occupation (if plot=True).

Can be used to determine if a defect is adopting a perturbed host state (PHS / shallow state), see https://doped.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Tips.html#perturbed-host-states.

If eigenvalue data has not already been parsed for DefectEntry (default in doped is to parse this data with DefectsParser/ DefectParser, as controlled by the parse_projected_eigen flag), then this function will attempt to load the eigenvalue data from either the input Vasprun/PROCAR objects or files, or from the bulk/defect_paths in defect_entry.calculation_metadata. If so, will initially try to load orbital projections from vasprun.xml(.gz) files (slightly slower but more accurate), or failing that from PROCAR(.gz) files if present.

This function uses code from pydefect: Citation: https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevMaterials.5.123803.

bulk_procar (str, Path, EasyunfoldProcar, Procar) – Not required if eigenvalue data has already been parsed for DefectEntry (default behaviour when parsing with doped, data in defect_entry.calculation_metadata["eigenvalue_data"]), or if bulk_vr was parsed with parse_projected_eigen = True. Either a path to the VASP PROCAR output file (with LORBIT > 10 in the INCAR) or an easyunfold/ pymatgen Procar object, for the reference bulk supercell calculation. If None (default), tries to load from a PROCAR(.gz) file at self.calculation_metadata["bulk_path"].

Compute the isotropic Freysoldt (FNV) correction for the defect_entry.

The correction is added to the defect_entry.corrections dictionary (to be used in following formation energy calculations). If this correction is used, please cite Freysoldt’s original paper; 10.1103/PhysRevLett.102.016402.

The charge correction error is estimated by computing the average standard deviation of the planar-averaged potential difference in the sampling region, and multiplying by the defect charge. This is expected to be a lower bound estimate of the true charge correction error.

Parameters:

dielectric (float or int or 3x1 matrix or 3x3 matrix) – Total dielectric constant of the host compound (including both ionic and (high-frequency) electronic contributions), in the same xyz Cartesian basis as the supercell calculations. If None, then the dielectric constant is taken from the defect_entry calculation_metadata if available.

plot (bool) – Whether to plot the FNV electrostatic potential plots (for manually checking the behaviour of the charge correction here).
filename (str) – Filename to save the FNV electrostatic potential plots to. If None, plots are not saved.
axis (int or None) – If int, then the FNV electrostatic potential plot along the specified axis (0, 1, 2 for a, b, c) will be plotted. Note that the output charge correction is still that for all axes. If None, then all three axes are plotted.
return_correction_error (bool) – If True, also returns the average standard deviation of the planar-averaged potential difference times the defect charge (which gives an estimate of the error range of the correction energy). Default is False.
error_tolerance (float) – If the estimated error in the charge correction, based on the variance of the potential in the sampling region, is greater than this value (in eV), then a warning is raised. (default: 0.05 eV)
style_file (str) – Path to a .mplstyle file to use for the plot. If None (default), uses the default doped style (from doped/utils/doped.mplstyle).
**kwargs – Additional kwargs to pass to pymatgen.analysis.defects.corrections.freysoldt.get_freysoldt_correction (e.g. energy_cutoff, mad_tol, q_model, step).

Compute the Kumagai (eFNV) finite-size charge correction for the defect_entry. Compatible with both isotropic/cubic and anisotropic systems.

The correction is added to the defect_entry.corrections dictionary (to be used in following formation energy calculations). If this correction is used, please cite the Kumagai & Oba paper: 10.1103/PhysRevB.89.195205

Typically for reasonably well-converged supercell sizes, the default defect_region_radius works perfectly well. However, for certain materials at small/intermediate supercell sizes, you may want to adjust this (and/or excluded_indices) to ensure the best sampling of the plateau region away from the defect position - doped should throw a warning in these cases (about the correction error being above the default tolerance (50 meV)). For example, with layered materials, the defect charge is often localised to one layer, so we may want to adjust defect_region_radius and/or excluded_indices to ensure that only sites in other layers are used for the sampling region (plateau) - see example on doped docs Tips page.

The correction error is estimated by computing the standard error of the mean of the sampled site potential differences, multiplied by the defect charge. This is expected to be a lower bound estimate of the true charge correction error.

Parameters:

dielectric (float or int or 3x1 matrix or 3x3 matrix) – Total dielectric constant of the host compound (including both ionic and (high-frequency) electronic contributions), in the same xyz Cartesian basis as the supercell calculations. If None, then the dielectric constant is taken from the defect_entry calculation_metadata if available.
defect_region_radius (float) – Radius of the defect region (in Å). Sites outside the defect region are used for sampling the electrostatic potential far from the defect (to obtain the potential alignment). If None (default), uses the Wigner-Seitz radius of the supercell.
excluded_indices (list) – List of site indices (in the defect supercell) to exclude from the site potential sampling in the correction calculation/plot. If None (default), no sites are excluded.
defect_outcar (str or Outcar) – Path to the output VASP OUTCAR file from the defect supercell calculation, or the corresponding pymatgen Outcar object. If None, will try to use the defect_supercell_site_potentials from the defect_entry calculation_metadata if available.
bulk_outcar (str or Outcar) – Path to the output VASP OUTCAR file from the bulk supercell calculation, or the corresponding pymatgen Outcar object. If None, will try to use the bulk_supercell_site_potentials from the defect_entry calculation_metadata if available.
plot (bool) – Whether to plot the Kumagai site potential plots (for manually checking the behaviour of the charge correction here).
filename (str) – Filename to save the Kumagai site potential plots to. If None, plots are not saved.
return_correction_error (bool) – If True, also returns the standard error of the mean of the sampled site potential differences times the defect charge (which gives an estimate of the error range of the correction energy). Default is False.
error_tolerance (float) – If the estimated error in the charge correction, based on the variance of the potential in the sampling region, is greater than this value (in eV), then a warning is raised. (default: 0.05 eV)
style_file (str) – Path to a .mplstyle file to use for the plot. If None (default), uses the default doped style (from doped/utils/doped.mplstyle).
**kwargs – Additional kwargs to pass to pydefect.corrections.efnv_correction.ExtendedFnvCorrection (e.g. charge, defect_region_radius, defect_coords).

Returns:

CorrectionResults (summary of the corrections applied and metadata), and the matplotlib figure object if plot is True, and the estimated charge correction error if return_correction_error is True.

relative_to_defect (bool) – Whether to plot the signed displacements along the line from the defect site to that atom. Negative values indicate the atom moves towards the defect (compressive strain), positive values indicate the atom moves away from the defect (tensile strain). Uses the relaxed defect position as reference.
vector_to_project_on – Direction to project the site displacements along (e.g. [0, 0, 1]). Defaults to None (e.g. the displacements are calculated in the cartesian basis x, y, z).
use_plotly (bool) – Whether to use plotly (True) or matplotlib (False).
mpl_style_file (str) – Path to a matplotlib style file to use for the plot. If None, uses the default doped style file.

Create the corresponding doped Defect (Vacancy, Interstitial, Substitution) from an input pymatgen Defect object.

Parameters:

defect – pymatgen Defect object.
bulk_oxi_states – Either a dict of bulk oxidation states to use, or a boolean. If True, re-guesses the oxidation state of the defect (ignoring the pymatgen Defect oxi_state attribute), otherwise uses the already-set oxi_state (default = 0).

Tries to guess (and set) the oxidation states of the input structure, with a timeout catch for cases where the structure is complex and oxi state guessing will take a very very long time.

Tries first without using the pymatgen BVAnalyzer class, and if this fails, tries using the ICSD oxidation state probabilities (with timeouts) to guess.

Parameters:

structure (Structure) – The structure for which to guess the oxidation states.
timeout_1 (float) – Timeout in seconds for the second attempt to guess the oxidation states, using ICSD oxidation state probabilities (with max_sites=-1). Default is 10 seconds.
timeout_2 (float) – Timeout in seconds for the third attempt to guess the oxidation states, using ICSD oxidation state probabilities (without max_sites=-1). Default is 15 seconds.
break_early_if_expensive (bool) – Whether to stop the function if the first oxi state guessing attempt (with BVAnalyzer) fails and the cost estimate for the ICSD probability guessing is high (expected to take a long time; > 10 seconds). Default is False.

Returns:

The structure with oxidation states guessed and set, or False if oxidation states could not be guessed.

Return type:

Structure

doped.core.guess_and_set_struct_oxi_states(structure, try_without_max_sites=False)[source]

Tries to guess (and set) the oxidation states of the input structure, first using the pymatgen BVAnalyzer class, and if that fails, using the ICSD oxidation state probabilities to guess.

Parameters:

structure (Structure) – The structure for which to guess the oxidation states.
try_without_max_sites (bool) – Whether to try to guess the oxidation states without using the max_sites=-1 argument (True)(which attempts to use the reduced composition for guessing oxi states) or not (False), when using the ICSD oxidation state probability guessing.

Returns:

The structure with oxidation states guessed and set, or False if oxidation states could not be guessed.

Return type:
