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 (click on an image to get a bigger picture):

BANDinput
Draw or import the atoms in the unit cell, choose the desired options from menu's, and start up your BAND calculation
ADFjobs
