What Does GWF Stand For?

GWF stands for Generalized Wannier Function

GWF, or Generalized Wannier Function, refers to a mathematical construct used in solid-state physics and quantum chemistry to describe the electronic properties of materials. It generalizes the traditional Wannier functions, providing a more flexible framework for analyzing localized electronic states and their interactions. GWFs are particularly useful in computational studies of complex materials, enabling researchers to investigate phenomena such as charge transfer, excitations, and band structure in systems with non-trivial topological or electronic characteristics.
