predictive_model_MoWS2_alloy

This code performs first-principle calculations for the MoWS2 alloy at fixed geometry. The geometry parameters like bond lengths and lattice constants are obtained experimentally. A self-consistent calculation is performed using atomic pseudopotentials to obtain the converged electron density, which is then used to calculate the quantum energy levels of the system. A band structure calculation is performed at the end of the self-consistent field calculation in order to predict important optoelectronic parameters such as energy band gap and electron/hole effective masses. All calculations are performed using the Quantum Espresso DFT Solver. For more information, see the following link: https://www.quantum-espresso.org/
