GTPhEllipticRod

GTPhEllipticRod[recirocal lattice vector,structure]

gives the structure factor of an elliptic rod.

Details and Options

  • The structure factor of an elliptic rod is given by
  • is the Bessel function of first kind. is the semi-major axis (x-direction) and the semi-minor axis (y-direction). The center of the elliptic rod coincides with the origin of the coordinate system. The dimensions of the elipsoid have to be measured in units of the lattice constant . The list structure contains the filling factor , and . If an additional entry is given, it is a rotation angle. It enables the rotation of the structure with respect to the coordinate system.
  • structure =
  • The reciprocal lattice vectors are given in units .
  • A circular rod described by the token CircularRod in GTPhShowStructure is a special case of EllipticRod.
