Calculation of d-band center
Posted: Tue Apr 06, 2010 6:17 pm
Hi Prof. Graeme,
Is there any new progress on the method of calculating the d-band center by VTST (the dosanalyze.pl script)? If there is, I would be glad to use it.

According to the guys who put forward this 'd-band model' (Norskov's group), "The d-band center was calculated as the first moment of the projected d-band density of states on the surface atoms referenced to the Fermi level, and the mean squared d-band width was calculated as the second moment.(in J. Chem. Phys. 120 (2004) 10240)" Is this method different from the mothod that you employed? Will you integrate their method, at least as an alternative?
Thanks.
