The QE & BoltzTraP2” module is now available in Materials Square

We’re excited to announce that a new feature has officially been added to Materials Square!

With the “QE & BoltzTraP2” module, you can now calculate key thermoelectric properties — including Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, and electronic thermal conductivity — directly in Materials Square.

:check_box_with_check: Key Features

  • Step-by-step workflow (QE NSCF → BoltzTraP2) within Materials Square
  • Simple UI-based setup for k-point mesh, temperature, and interpolation resolution
  • Results plotted as a function of chemical potential and carrier concentration
  • Option to view results by direction (xx, yy, zz) or as an averaged value

:loudspeaker: Additional Note
Currently, the module supports Quantum ESPRESSO–based calculations.
The SIESTA-integrated BoltzTraP2 workflow will be available soon — stay tuned!
