defermi: Nokta kusuru dengelerini hesaplama ve görselleştirme aracı, hesaplamalı ve deneysel kullanıcıları birbirine bağlıyor

Özet (abstract)

Computational methods provide a rigorous alternative to assumption-based defect chemistry for studying defect thermodynamics. However, existing tools for calculating and visualizing point-defect equilibria are predominantly designed around high-throughput density functional theory workflows, which can limit their accessibility to experimentally focused researchers. Here, we present defermi, a Python package with an integrated graphical user interface for analyzing point-defect equilibria. The interface enables efficient and reproducible workflows for plotting defect formation energies and charge transition levels and for computing Brouwer and doping diagrams. In parallel, the Python API provides the same high-level functionality while allowing advanced customization, including user-defined routines for defect formation energies and defect concentrations. This flexibility enables extensions beyond standard ab initio approaches, such as the inclusion of temperature and volume dependence in defect formation energies. By combining an accessible graphical interface with a customizable programmatic framework, defermi connects computational defect thermodynamics with experimentally oriented defect chemistry.
