In this post we will walk through how to calculate and plot the density of state (DOS) of a 1D, 2D, and 3D square lattice, using TBTK<\/a>. To achieve this we will first implement three functions for creating the corresponding models. We will then create a fourth function in which the DOS is calculated for each of the three models.<\/p>\n

This example also provides a simple demonstration of how TBTK naturally support the creation of general purpose code, in this case the calculation of the DOS, that can be used independently of the details of the model.<\/p>\n
