6.3.1.4.4. kmclifetime¶
Perform Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of singlets with decay The following table contains the defaults input options for the calculator, The default OPTIONAL means this option is switched off, if no input is given. REQUIRED arguments have to be specified, otherwise an error is thrown.
Property Name |
Default Value |
Description |
Valid Input |
---|---|---|---|
lifetimefile |
lifetimes.xml |
File from which lifetimes are read in. |

File containing the rates |
|
trajectoryfile |
trajectory.csv |
Name of the trajectory file |
|
numberofinsertions |
4000 |
number of decays to simulate |
int+ |
seed |
23 |
Integer to initialise the random number generator |
int+ |
numberofcarriers |
1 |
Number of electrons/holes in the simulation box |
int+ |
injectionpattern |
Name pattern that specifies on which sites injection is
possible. Use the wildcard ‘*’ to inject on any site.
|
||
injectionmethod |
random |
random: injection sites are selected randomly (generally
the recommended option); equilibrated: sites are chosen
such that the expected energy per carrier is matched,
possibly speeding up convergence
|
random |

occfile |
occupation.dat |
File with the occupations |
|
maxrealtime |
1E10 |
