pseudomorphic_strain{ }

Calling sequence

strain{ pseudomorphic_strain{ } }

Properties

• usage: $\mathrm{conditional}$

• items: maximum 1

Dependencies

• linear_solver{ } is not allowed if this group is defined.

• Exactly one out of no_strain{ }, pseudomorphic_strain{ }, minimized_strain{ }, and import_strain{ } must be defined.

• One of pseudomorphic_strain{ } and minimized_strain{ } must be present to allow using output_distortion_tensor{ }, output_stress_tensor{ }, output_force_density{ }, output_elastic_energy_density{ }, output_lattice_constants{ }, output_elastic_constants{ }.

• One of pseudomorphic_strain{ }, minimized_strain{ }, and import_strain{ } must be present to allow using output_hydrostatic_strain{ }, output_strain_tensor{ }, output_piezo_constants{ }, output_second_order_piezo_constants{ }.

Functionality

Homogeneous strain for 1D layer structures (analytical calculation). This feature also works in 2D or 3D but the user must be sure that the model makes sense from a physical point of view, i.e., the 2D/3D structure should consist of different layers along the growth direction whereas the layers must be homogenous along the two perpendicular directions.

Example

strain{
    pseudomorphic_strain{}
