The Graphical User Interface for BAND (BAND-GUI)
New in ADF2009: the solid/surface builder (BANDinput) supports all space groups and can import .cif files,
visualization of ELF, and various other properties on any grid.
Further improvement of the current BAND-GUI modules and development of additional modules is a high priority for SCM.
A step-by-step tutorial
ensures that anyone can visualize results of a basis BAND
calculation within an hour after installation.
The BAND-GUI currently contains the following modules
