Detailed Description

StructureFactor evaluates structure factors in Fourier space.

A structure factor for a wavevector k and mode m defined as an expectation value

$S_{m}(k) = < \rho(k) \rho(-k) / V >$

where, V is system volume, and $\rho(k)$ is a Fourier component

$\rho(k) = \sum_{a} \sum_{i} v(m, a)\exp( i k \cdot r_i )$

in which the sum is taken over all particles, a is the atom type of particle i, and v(m, a) is a coefficient for atom type a for mode m. The matrix v(m, a) of mode coefficients is input by the user.

This class can evaluate one or modes for multiple wavevectors. The input format thus requires the user to specify one or more mode vectors, and one or more wavevectors. Each wavevector is specified as an IntVector containing the integer Miller indices of a reciprocal lattice vector. These are the coeficients in an expansion of a reciprocal lattice wavevector as a sum of recprocal lattice basis vectors for the periodic unit cell.
