Warning: under development. Please if you find any bug or issues contact me.
Here you find how to use boltztrap2 directly through pymatgen. Examples of what it is possible to do with it and which quantities can be computed from the band structure are provided.
Boltztrap2 needs to be installed. Spin polarized is now implemented.
This notebook was tested with pymatgen == 2v2020.7.3. It should work with higher version too.

To save time in large systems, the coefficient of the interpolation can be saved in a file and read them later to avoid to recalculate them.
