    The document describes the functions used in the 2D module of AQUILA including initaquila.m which sets predefined values as global variables in a structure called aquila_control. This structure holds values for the problem mode (1D or 2D), periodicity, lattice temperature, verbosity level, Fermi energy calculated using an equation, and carrier type in the conduction band (electrons from the Γ, X, or L valley).

    1. initaquila.m Here, some predened values are set and those values are dened as global variable. A structure named aquila control holds the values of dierent global variables. aquila control: aquila control.mode: 1 for one-dimensional problem and 2 for two-dimensional problem to be solved by the routine aquila control.periodic: 0 for non-periodic and 1 for periodic structure (For the heads up, the programme does not stops for the periodic problem. It solves for the periodicity once and again go back to the non-periodic state of the system). Default value is 0 aquila control.T: Lattice temperature. (FYI, electron temperature and lattice temperature is considered equal in the routine). Default value is 4.2K aquila control.berbose: Verbosity level of the output. Default value is 0 aquila control.Efermi: Fermi energy is calculated using the following: Ef ermi = 1 1.519 5.405 104 T 2 2 T + 204 (1)

    aquila control.carriers: Carrier type in the Conduction Band (CB) (i.e. whether the carriers are from the -valley, X-peak or L-peak). Default value is GE (Gamma Electron and it is loaded from the constants.m)
