gStrain for multielectron systems

Post by thanasis »

I was looking into introducing single-ion g-strain into an exchange-coupled system and saw in the documentation (http://easyspin.org/easyspin/documentat ... nings.html) that "g strain is not supported for systems with more than one electron spin".

However, I had already set up my system and I ran it without errors with Sys.gStrain = [0.05 0.05 0; 0.05 0.05 0; 0.05 0.05 0]; (for a system with only gperp strain in each spin).

The simulated spectra do look as I expected them.

Is the documentation out of date, or are the simulations wrong?

Thanks in advance!

This feature is new and currently undocumented, but will be official in the next release. Please report any issue you might find!

Nice to stumble upon the feature when I needed it the most. Thanks!

From the runs I've done it seems to work as expected. For any issues I'll post ASAP.

I've run simulations in pepper with six rhombic systems, using g-strain for each system. So far it's worked flawlessly.
