Abstract

We present a standalone ΘΦ (ThetaPhi) package capable to read the results of
ab initio DFT/PAW quantum-chemical solid-state calculations processed through
various tools projecting them to the atomic basis states as an input and to perform on top of this an analysis of so derived electronic structure which includes (among other options) the possibility to obtain a superconducting (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer, BCS), spin-liquid (resonating valence bond, RVB) states/phases as solutions of the electronic structure problem along with the magnetically ordered phases with an arbitrary pitch (magnetic superstructure) vector. Remarkably, different solutions of electronic-structure problems come out as temperature-dependent (exemplified by various superconducting and spin-liquid phases) which feature is as well implemented. All that is exemplified by model calculations on 1D chain, 2D square lattice as well as on more realistic superconducting doped graphene, magnetic phases of iron, and spin-liquid and magnetically ordered states of a simplest nitrogen-based copper pseudo-oxide, CuNCN, resembling so-called metal-oxide framework (MOF) phases by the atomic interlinkage.
