Overview

This repository provides an ab initio workflow to compute spin Hall conductivity in topological insulators using Quantum ESPRESSO and Wannier90-derived interpolations (as described by the repository). It is a practical implementation-oriented code base for spin Hall transport calculations.

Scientific domain: Spin Hall conductivity, topological materials, electronic transport
Target user community: Researchers performing spin Hall conductivity calculations from first-principles

Theoretical Methods

• Wannier interpolation based evaluation of Berry-curvature-related response functions (workflow dependent)
• Linear-response transport for spin Hall conductivity (as implemented)

Capabilities (CRITICAL)

• Spin Hall conductivity calculation workflow
• Integration of Quantum ESPRESSO + Wannier90 outputs

Inputs & Outputs

• Input formats: Quantum ESPRESSO and Wannier90 workflow files as required by the repository
• Output data types: Spin Hall conductivity values and intermediate data products

Interfaces & Ecosystem

• Quantum ESPRESSO
• Wannier90

Limitations & Known Constraints

• Requires careful convergence of k-point meshes and Wannierization.
