Work History

June 2025

3 Commits • 2 Features

Jun 1, 2025

June 2025: Delivered automated EDA calculations via BANDFragment and ADFFragment recipes in SCM-NV/PLAMS, refactored ADFFragmentResults for efficiency, and improved BANDFragment example scripts and k-space parameter handling. Also completed code quality improvements (linting and type hints) to improve readability and maintainability. These efforts accelerate reproducible analyses, reduce manual steps, and strengthen the codebase for future development.

April 2025

2 Commits • 2 Features

Apr 1, 2025

April 2025 focused on BandFragment-related improvements in SCM-NV/PLAMS to improve user onboarding and type-safety. Delivered updates to documentation layout and corrected download paths, along with enhancements to type hints and data handling for ADFFragment/BANDFragment recipes to boost mypy compatibility and downstream reliability. No customer-facing bugs fixed this month; the work instead emphasized documentation accuracy, type safety, and data processing robustness to support easier adoption and maintenance. Key commits included adjusting the doc to the new layout (52cbce67909487ea555f0734048daf325a0dade5) and enhancing typing/data handling in recipes (1442191f5452e5f8617fc5d198829978cecc0d18).

In 2024-11, SCM-NV/PLAMS delivered a new NOCV eigenvalues and orbital interaction energies extraction feature from ADF results, enabling retrieval and conversion of NOCV data for both restricted and unrestricted calculations. The implementation includes dedicated methods to extract eigenvalues and orbital interaction energies, convert units, and integrate with ADF fragment job analysis to expose detailed electronic structure information. This enhancement strengthens analytical capabilities for ADF-based workflows and supports more informed interpretation of electronic interactions in fragment analyses, accelerating scientific decision-making and validation workflows.
