Parameters and request body schema for this route.
Range: 20 to 500
Number of energy-contour points for TB2J integration
Lower bound of energy contour relative to Fermi level (eV)
Neighbor cutoff for Jij in Å (TB2J default if omitted)
Monkhorst-Pack mesh for TB2J (defaults from kspacing)
autonon_spincollinearCollinear spin treatment. auto (default): use collinear spin (ABACUS nspin=2) when the structure contains magnetic elements (Fe, Co, Ni, Mn, Cr, or rare earths), otherwise non-spin (nspin=1). non_spin: force closed-shell (nspin=1). collinear: force spin-polarized DFT with seeded moments (nspin=2). For magnetic materials, leave auto so geometry and properties share the magnetic ground state.
Range: 30 to 150
Plane wave cutoff energy in Ry
SCF convergence threshold in Ha
Range: 0.05 to 1
K-point spacing in 1/Å
Range: 20 to 500
Maximum number of SCF iterations
SZDZPTZDPLCAO basis size: SZ (fastest), DZP (balanced), TZDP (most accurate)
PBEPBEsolLDASCANXC functional
Range: to 1
Energy range for smearing in Ry
fixedgaussgaussianmpmp2mvcoldfdOccupation and smearing method: fixed (non-conductors only), gauss/gaussian, mp (metals), mp2 (metals), mv/cold, fd (Fermi-Dirac)
Elements treated as magnetic sites for TB2J (e.g. Fe, Co, Ni). Defaults to magnetic species present in the structure.

print(f"Response: {action.get('response_data')}")Compute Heisenberg exchange couplings Jij via TB2J from a collinear SCF, with neighbor shells and a mean-field Curie-temperature estimate. Returns a compact JSON summary (shells, J0, Tc) plus a jij.json file with the full pair list. Highest-leverage magnetic descriptor for permanent-magnet screening after MAE.

Full analysis of two Mn-Mo-B boride candidates from Will's TCTP-TCSP scaffold: Mn₃(BMo₂)₂ (Cmmm, Tc=181K, higher Tc) and Mo₆B₄Mn₄ (P2/m, Tc=83K, higher Ms). Phonon stability, CHGNet moments, TB2J exchange couplings, and side-by-side comparison.

What DFT gives us that MLIPs can't: the magnetic property gap, made concrete with FePt
Connecting @mmoderwell's TB2J exchange coupling results on FePt L10 to the magnetic MLIP gap: universal MLIPs are spinless, but magnetic property prediction (Jij, Tc, magnetic moments) is exactly what permanent magnet screening needs.

ALIGNN vs mCGCNN vs CHGNet: can any model tell FM from AFM?
ALIGNN vs mCGCNN vs CHGNet on 24 materials (14 FM, 8 AFM, 2 NM). None can classify magnetic ordering from structure alone. CHGNet and mCGCNN label every AFM as FM. ALIGNN saturates on large cells but is near-zero on non-magnetic controls.
