feature/SOF-8075 Feature: SE for SrTiO3(011) and (001) terminations, surface energies of Table VII - #386
Replaces the SrTiO3(011) structure notebook, which built two asymmetric six-plane slabs that are none of the manuscript's, with the seven-plane slabs of Eglitis & Vanderbilt, Phys. Rev. B77, 195408 (2008), and adds the simulation notebook that reproduces their Table VII.
slab_strontium_titanate.ipynb: builds whole planes per orientation and cuts NUMBER_OF_PLANES (7), chosen by end-plane formula. (011): TiO-, Sr- and O-terminated slabs (16 / 14 / 15 atoms, FIG. 3(d)-(f)), made by removing atoms from both end planes of the whole-plane SrTiO- and O2-terminated slabs, which are saved too (FIG. 3(b)/(c), ±4 e, not computed). (001): SrO- and TiO2-terminated slabs (17 / 18 atoms, FIG. 1). Each slab prints its planes bottom to top, nominal charge, whether its faces are equivalent, and its vacuum. Saved under fixed names with the bulk cell (mp-5229).
slab_strontium_titanate_SIMULATION.ipynb (new): Total Energy jobs on the bulk cell and the five slabs; RELAX = True adds a fixed-cell relaxation of every slab, all atoms. Eqs. (1)-(5) are evaluated in the notebook, and the last cell prints our cleavage, relaxation and surface energies beside Table VII. PBE / GBRV ultrasoft, k-point density 6.5 Å⁻¹; the manuscript is B3PW.
Introduction.ipynb: row P-2D-SLB-S links the simulation notebook.
Energies from the native production run at b202a78 (cluster-001, OR/16), RELAX = True, as this head's comparison cell prints them, eV per 1×1 cell:
Both notebooks also ran in JupyterLite at b202a78 (PyPI mat3ra-made 2026.10.10.post0) with the same energies; the simulation reused all 6 materials and 11 jobs.
Job and material reuse on re-runs needs mat3ra-made 2026.10.10.post0 or later (made#300, released): earlier versions hash the (011) slabs differently from the platform and create them again.
rendered pw_scf.in per slab: atom count 16/14/15, species Sr/Ti/O with GBRV files, no label suffixes, k-grid 11×8×1; bulk 11×11×11. (Checked on the pw_relax.in of each slab and the bulk SCF output.)
each slab's two faces identical by composition and mirror position (printed by the structure notebook); the O slab's removed O chosen so the faces match.
relaxation jobs converged (pw_relax.out final forces below threshold); no atom left the slab.
the two whole-plane symmetric slabs are saved and visualised but no job is submitted for them.
Added an SrTiO₃ surface-energy simulation workflow for five slab configurations across the (011) and (001) surfaces. It reports energy and force results, calculates cleavage and surface energies, and compares results with published values.
Expanded the SrTiO₃ slab examples with additional surface terminations, slab properties, and visualizations.
Updated the materials designer introduction so the P-2D-SLB-S example links to the SrTiO₃ surface-energy simulation.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.

Walkthrough
The slab notebook now builds and saves SrTiO₃ slabs for the (011) and (001) surfaces. A linked simulation notebook runs or reuses calculation jobs and reports cleavage, relaxation, and surface energies.
The slab notebook defines seven-plane configurations for (011) and (001) terminations and lists available terminations. The introduction links to the simulation notebook.
Build and trim slabs other/materials_designer/specific_examples/slab_strontium_titanate.ipynb
The notebook builds whole-plane slabs and trims consecutive planes according to configured terminations and atom-removal rules.
Analyze and save slabs other/materials_designer/specific_examples/slab_strontium_titanate.ipynb
The notebook reports slab properties, visualizes the slabs, and saves the bulk material with the generated slabs.
The simulation notebook configures DFT and compute settings, authenticates the API client, and loads or saves the bulk and slab materials.
Run and report slab energies other/materials_designer/specific_examples/slab_strontium_titanate_SIMULATION.ipynb
The notebook runs or reuses total-energy jobs, optionally performs fixed-cell relaxation, calculates cleavage and surface energies, and compares results with the reference table.

Include relaxation inputs in the reuse identity.
When RELAXATION_SETTINGS changes, workflow.name remains unchanged because MODEL_TAG does not include relaxation settings. The lookup can reuse an older finished relaxation job. The notebook then uses that job’s energy for the current surface-energy result.

The trimmed faces can end up inequivalent because the removed site is chosen by lexicographic minimum.
min(..., key=lambda i: coordinates[i][:2]) picks the atom with the smallest crystal (x, y) on each end plane. On (011), the top and bottom SrTiO planes of a seven-plane cut can be offset in-plane from each other. If they are, the "same in-plane site" rule does not give a centrosymmetric slab. The markdown says face equivalence is printed, so a False result will show up at runtime. However, nothing stops a slab with inequivalent faces from being saved and used in Eqs. (2)–(3), and those equations assume two equivalent relaxing faces.
Fail fast for the paper's terminations when have_equivalent_faces(slab) is false.
Proposed guard
slab.name = f"SrTiO3({''.join(map(str, miller_indices))}) {termination}-terminated {NUMBER_OF_PLANES} planes"
+ if removed_elements and not have_equivalent_faces(slab):+ raise ValueError(f"{slab.name}: faces are not equivalent")

Include the selected relaxation template in the reuse identity.
When RELAX is enabled and RELAX_WORKFLOW_SEARCH_TERM selects a different valid template, the helper still assigns the same workflow.name for the same material and MODEL_TAG. The lookup does not compare workflow contents. It can therefore reuse an earlier finished job and report that job's energy for the new template.
Pass the selected template identity into the workflow name. This is separate from adding an input_settings dictionary, which this notebook does not use.
