NSLS-II Friday Luncheon Seminar

"EDRIXS: An open source toolkit for simulating spectra of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering"

Presented by Yilin Wang, Condensed Matter Physics & Material

Friday, January 25, 2019, 12:00 pm — NSLS-II, Bldg. 743 Rm 156

In this talk, we present an open source toolkit (dubbed EDRIXS) to facilitate the simulations of RIXS spectra of strongly correlated materials based on exact diagonalization (ED) of certain model Hamiltonians. The model Hamiltonian can be from a single atom, small cluster or Anderson impurity model, with model parameters from density functional theory plus Wannier90 or dynamical mean-field theory calculations. The spectra of x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and RIXS are then calculated using Krylov subspace techniques. This toolkit contains highly efficient ED, XAS and RIXS solvers written in modern Fortran 90 language and a convenient Python library used to prepare inputs and set up calculations. We first give a short introduction to RIXS spectroscopy, and then we discuss the implementation details of this toolkit. Finally, we show several examples to demonstrate its usage.
