pymatgen-analysis-diffusion
===========================

Formerly pymatgen-diffusion, this is an add-on to pymatgen for diffusion
analysis that is developed by the Materials Virtual Lab. Note that it relies on
pymatgen for structural manipulations, file io, and preliminary analyses. This is
and will always be, a scientific work in progress. Pls check back regularly for
more details.

Major Update (v2021.3.5)
========================

pymatgen-analysis-diffusion is now released as a namespace package `pymatgen-analysis-diffusion` on PyPI. It should be
imported via `pymatgen.analysis.diffusion` instead `pymatgen_diffusion`. To install this package via pip::

    pip install pymatgen-analysis-diffusion

Features (non-exhaustive!)
==========================

1. Van-Hove analysis
2. Probability density
3. Clustering (e.g., k-means with periodic boundary conditions).
4. Migration path finding and IDPP.

Citing
======

If you use pymatgen-diffusion in your research, please cite the following
work::

    Deng, Z.; Zhu, Z.; Chu, I.H.; Ong, S. P. Data-Driven First-Principles
    Methods for the Study and Design of Alkali Superionic Conductors,
    Chem. Mater., 2016, acs.chemmater.6b02648, doi:10.1021/acs.chemmater.6b02648.

You should also include the following citation for the pymatgen core package
given that it forms the basis for most of the analyses::

In addtion, some of the analyses may also have relevant publications that
you should cite. Please consult the documentation of each module.
