WeylDirac

WeylDirac is a software package designed for performing calculations related to Weyl and Dirac semimetals. These exotic materials exhibit unique electronic properties arising from the presence of Weyl or Dirac fermions as their low-energy excitations. The software aims to simplify the complex theoretical and computational tasks involved in studying these systems.

The package typically offers tools for band structure calculations, topological invariant computations, and simulations of material response to external stimuli. It may support various theoretical frameworks, such as density functional theory (DFT), and allow users to input crystal structures and material parameters to generate their electronic properties. A key feature often found in WeylDirac is its ability to identify and characterize topological phases, which are crucial for understanding the behavior of Weyl and Dirac semimetals.

Users can employ WeylDirac to investigate phenomena like the chiral anomaly, surface states, and transport properties specific to these materials. The software is intended for researchers in condensed matter physics and materials science who are interested in exploring the fundamental physics and potential applications of topological semimetals. Its development often focuses on providing an accessible interface to advanced computational methods, enabling faster exploration and discovery in this rapidly evolving field.
