Hello!!

I am Master's student in Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. I am using this software for my project in which I am working on ISBTs in AlN, GaN potential wells. I can't see the band bending (even at Eapplied=0) due to polarization effect (spontaneous and piezoelectric) in the band diagram. Could you please help me with including polarization effect in aestimo.py file. 

Thank You.

Warm Regards,

Hi,
You will find in "aestimo_eh.py" the polarization effect (spontaneous and piezoelectric) but without ISBTs calculations.

Hi, thanks for the reply :)
I did notice that valence band calculations contain Polarization effect; but I am having difficulty in combining both polarization and ISBT in conduction band calculations using aestimo.
