electronic_stopping sets the option for doing a radiation cascade simulation where the electronic stopping and electronic energy loss will be taken into account. This is typically invoked while simulating collision cascades of atoms. There are three input keywords for which inputs need to be provided if this calculation is invoked. These are as follows:

eel_cut, eel_freq_out, estop_filename.

Summary

Summary for electronic_stopping keyword
Required/optional Type Accepted values Default See also Remarks
Optional Boolean .true. or .false. .false. eel_cut, eel_freq_out, estop_filename Required functionality for simulating collision cascades

Example

electronic_stopping = .true.
eel_cut = 1.0      ! in eV
eel_freq_out = 10
estop_filename = 'stopping-data-file'
