Miscellaneous IPython notebooks about chemical physics and science teaching.

This repository aims to show examples of python source code applied mainly to chemical physics and material science. Some of them are used for teaching python or basic mathematical concepts.

The IPython Notebook extend the python interactive shell IPython as an interactive computational environment, in which you can combine code execution, rich text, mathematics, plots and rich media.

The IPython Notebooks present in this repository required the following python modules :

• pymatgen (Python Materials Genomics) A robust, open-source Python library for materials analysis.
• numpy
• scipy
• matplotlib
• plotly A platform for publishing beautiful, interactive graphs from Python to the web.

All notebooks can be read through the notebook viewver of github or on http://nbviewer.ipython.org/. The notebook of this repository can be found here : http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/gvallverdu/cookbook.

Hereafter, a brief description of notebooks is given :

• plotly_bandDiagram [en]

  Plot a band diagram with plotly and pymatgen libraries with a colorscale in order to highlight s and p contributions to a band or to the DOS.

• plotly_bandDiagram_SpinPolarized [en]

  Plot a band diagram with plotly and pymatgen libraries with a colorscale in order to highlight s and p contributions to a band or to the DOS. This notebook deals with a spin polarized system (MnO).
