radtools.PDOS.normalize

method

PDOS.normalize(zeros_to_none=False)

Normalize values of PDOS to 1 for each k and energy point.

If \(x_i(E, k)\) is PDOS of the projector \(i\), then after this function does the following:

\[x_i(E, k) \rightarrow \dfrac{x_i(E, k)}{\sum_{j=0}^{n} x_j(E, k)}\]

where \(n\) is the total number of projectors. Those sums are computed individually for spin-up and spin-down in the spin-polarized case.

Parameters:

zeros_to_nonebool, default False

If True, then the values of PDOS and LDOS > 1e-8 will be replaced with None.
