'Deity' is basically a fancy word for God or other divine being. Atheist means without theism or religion. So an atheist is somebody who does not believe in god. They do not believe in any deities at all.
The reason an atheist does not consider the existence of gods a possibility is that there is no evidence for any. Atheists, like all people everywhere should, take that last sentence and analyse it and realise that therefore a god cannot be considered to be real. Anything can only be considered to be real if there is evidence.
Short answer: There are no atheist deities by definition.
