Dear KWANT developers, I want to generate a 3D annulus cylinder with hopping in all the three directions(periodic in x-direction) like the following figure. Please suggest me the way to generate such type of geometry. If possible then provide an example code for that for better understanding. [image: image.png] I will be very thankful to you.

You can use a 'shape' function as shown in Kwant tutorial 2.3: https://kwant-project.org/doc/1/tutorial/spin_potential_shape#nontrivial-sha.... The code will be almost exactly the same as the ring example in the tutorial, except that you will have 3 coordinates instead of 2. Happy Kwanting, Joe
Problem solved. Thanks a lot sir. On Fri, Aug 9, 2019 at 2:45 PM Joseph Weston <joseph.weston08@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,
Dear sir,
Could we attach *circular leads* to the inner and outer circle of annulus geometry in 3D? Please suggest me if there is a way to do that.
What do you mean by circular leads? Do you mean leads with a circle cross-section (i.e. a semi-infinite cylinder lead)? If so then all you need to do is create a lead with a circular cross-section uses 'lat.shape' in a similar way to how you created the scattering region. You can attach leads to the interior of the annulus by specifying the parameter 'origin' to be a site in the interior of the annulus when calling 'attach_lead' (see the documentation [1]). e.g.: syst.attach_lead(lead, origin=lat(0, 0)) # lat(0, 0) is in the hole of the annulus Happy Kwanting, Joe [1]: https://kwant-project.org/doc/1/reference/generated/kwant.builder.Builder#kw...
Dear sir, syst.attach_lead(lead, origin=lat(0, 0, 0)) # lat(0, 0, 0) is in the hole of the annulus This is okay. But I want to create leads in the radial direction, suppose X is the width of cylinder, Y is circumference and Z is the Difference in outer and inner radii. So, I want to create leads wrapped around Y, for inner circumference lead should directed towards origin and for outer circle directed away from the origin.

Dear Naveen, These inwards- and outwards- facing leads wouldn't have translation invariance. This makes one unable to compute a mode decomposition in such a geometry, and therefore computing the conductance becomes extremely difficult. Right now Kwant only implements the algorithms that assume translationally invariant leads. Best, Anton On Tue, 13 Aug 2019 at 14:15, Naveen Yadav <naveengunwal72@gmail.com> wrote:
