Line 3: Line 3:
 The work function //W// for a given surface is defined by the difference between Fermi level and electrostatic potential in the vacuum: The work function //W// for a given surface is defined by the difference between Fermi level and electrostatic potential in the vacuum:
  
-''$W = -e\phi - E_f$''+$W = -e\phi - E_f$
  
 where $\phi$ is the electrostatic potential in the vacuum and $E_f$ is the Fermi level of the surface. where $\phi$ is the electrostatic potential in the vacuum and $E_f$ is the Fermi level of the surface.

 +Those two quantities can be obtained from [[https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-2022_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/PRINT/PDOS.html| PDOS]] and [[https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-2022_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/PRINT/V_HARTREE_CUBE.html | V_HARTREE_CUBE]].

 +One can use [[https://www.cp2k.org/tools:cubecruncher | Cubecruncher]] to compute the profile along the normal of the surface to obtained the electrostatic potential of the given surface and vacuum.
