Understanding effect of dopant using ARTEMIS
Hi, Happy new year! I am a graduate student in material science at RPI. I am interested in understanding doping of elements in bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3). By understanding I mean, where it is going (interstitial sites or replacing any element in crystal) and what it is doing (changing band structure, electronic states etc.). For that, we carried experiments at beamline X19A at BNL couple of months ago. On primary analysis using ATHENA, we see some indications of interestitial site occupancy (attached is ChiR vs radial distance plots). To confirm this hypothesis, I am thinking of simulating spectra using ARTEMIS. Plan is- 1) First, match spectra of bismuth telluride with standard 2) Add dopant at interstitial sites and other possible sites, and simulate spectra to see if it matches with experimental spectra. I am seeking help/guidance on following, 1) Getting started with ARTEMIS- I have started learning ARTEMIS but still don't understand a lot of parameters. I will appreciate if someone can send me tutorials on recent version of ARTEMIS, feff tutorials on some websites are for command line version. I don't understand many of the parameters in ARTEMIS and any detailed tutorial will really help. I don't want to tweak parameters without understanding them completely. 2) Input atom file for ARTEMIS- I have cif file for Bi2Te3, how can I import that in "ATOMS" for making input file for ARTEMIS? Once I can create Bi2Te3 crystal using ATOMS, I think I can add Cl (dopant) to simulate other spectra easily. I would love to hear any feedback on approach too. Thanks and regards, Devender www.rpi.edu/~devend/
