The database is provided upon request.
The database contains structural, thermodynamic, elastic, electronic, magnetic, and optical properties of around 4000 two-dimensional (2D) materials distributed over more than 40 different crystal structures. The properties are calculated by density functional theory (DFT) and many-body perturbation theory (\(G_0W_0\) and the Bethe- Salpeter Equation for around 300 materials) as implemented in the GPAW electronic structure code. The workflow was constructed using the Atomic Simulation Recipes (ASR) and executed with the MyQueue task manager. The workflow script and a table with the numerical settings employed for the calculation of the different properties are provided below.
If a parameter is not specified at a given step, its value equals that of the last step where it was specified:
Workflow step(s) |

The C2DB project has received funding from the Danish National Research Foundation’s Center for Nanostructured Graphene (CNG) and the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program Grant No. 773122 (LIMA) and Grant agreement No. 951786 (NOMAD CoE).

In this example we reproduce figure 18 from

The figure shows the total polarizability, including both electrons and phonons, of monolayer hBN in the infrared frequency regime.
In this example, we want to extract the k-points of HSE valence band
maximum and conduction band minimum. We do that by creating an instance of
asr.c2db.hse.Result. Once we have a Result
object we can get the data from the attributes
kvbm and kcbm:
from asr.database import connect
db = connect('c2db.db')
# Select a row that has HSE06 data:
for row in db.select(has_asr_hse=True):
break
record = row.cache.get(name='asr.c2db.hse:main')
result = record.result
print(result.kvbm)
print(result.kcbm)
The workflow for each material is described in this
workflow.py file
As an example, let’s do MoS\(_2\) in the CdI2 prototype (T-phase).
Create a main folder and a subfolder:
$ mkdir TMD
$ cd TMD
$ mkdir MoS2-CdI2
Create a structure.json file containing something close to the groundstate
structure:
$ python3
>>> from ase.build import mx2
>>> a = mx2('MoS2', '1T', a=3.20, thickness=3.17, vacuum=7.5)
>>> a.write('MoS2-CdI2/structure.json')
Start the workflow with:
$ mq workflow ~/cmr/docs/c2db/workflow.py MoS2-CdI2/
Note
The \(mq\) tool is described here
Once the first part of the workflow has finished,
one or more folders will appear (nm/, fm/, afm/) if the material
was thermodynimically stable. You can then run the remaining part of the
workflow:
$ mq workflow ~/cmr/docs/c2db/workflow.py MoS2-CdI2/*m/
When everything is ready you can collect the results in a database file and inspect the results in a web-browser:
$ python3 -m asr.database.fromtree MoS2-CdI2/*m/
$ python3 -m asr.app
