  • put in a new calculations or calculators module?
  • Begin by using approximations, then decide if the assumptions are met?
    • approximations:
      1. non-degenerate limit
      2. degenerate limit
      3. iteratively solved approximation for a parabolic band
      4. full integration for a parabolic band?
      5. full integration including satellite valleys
      6. full integration for a Kane band
      7. full integration a Kane band and satellite valleys
    • The correct implementation should be picked automatically by default, but the various implementations should also be callable directly for advanced users
    • Strained layers?
  • require numpy only if neither non-degenerate nor degenerate limits apply?
  • provide instancing to cache the density of states so that multiple consecutive calculations can be sped up
