[Wien] problems with ssh/csh (or so) on a cluster

2008-09-18 Thread Ludwig, Christian
You are right, I got something mixed up. Now it is working. Seems to be the 
only mistake was to only give one node in the machines file. Thank you very 
much.

Now we start mixing up things (and probably many different test runs
on your side).

You said you can run without parallelization ?

in such a case you MUST be able to run x lapw1  (or,
once you have lapw1.def created by the first   x lapw1 call),
lapw1 lapw1.def

the error message is quite obvious:

the file test.vsp does NOT exist !! (of course it does not exist when
you are not in the right directory), but otherwise this file
has been generated byx lapw0   (this is the step before lapw1 and
you mentioned, it is working ok.

In addition, can you do on your local computer:

cd test
x lapw1   (or lapw1 lapw1.def)

if not, try to repeat lapw0:

x lapw0 (if this does not work, you have not completed an 
initialization,...)

Its impossible to fix a problem from the outside, since I can never imagine
what could have been gone wrong before.

 Still, I get the lapw1.error I showed you.

 Sorry, my fault. One hase to change into the proper dir.

 ssh node cd /dir/subdir/workingdir ; lapw1 lapw1.def

 ssh node lapw1 lapw1.def results in LAPW1 - Error. The lapw1.error file 
 reads

  'INILPW' - can't open unit: 18
  'INILPW' -filename: test.vsp
  'INILPW' -  status: old  form: formatted
  'LAPW1' - INILPW aborted unsuccessfully.

 which tells me absolutely nothing.

[Wien] Calculating XPS spectra in Wien2k

2008-09-18 Thread Gerhard Fecher
Realy not a good idea,
 if you have C on the surface, what C is it ? CO, hydrocarbon, graphite ? All 
have a different binding energy of the C 1s !
I suggest, if youre sample is not to be supposed to contain C, you should clean 
it.

XPS energies have to be calibrated using the Au (or Ag) Fermi energy !

and the other question: And for an insulator when the extra 1/2 (or 1) electron 
goes into the
conduction band and E_F changes?
An insulater will most probably charge if you do XPS, and the energies do not 
tell you much.

Ciao
Gerhard

Good point, we do use the C 1s peak for calibration.

 Yes, but the experimental energy scale is often calibrated by
 considering the C 1s peak (fixed at about 285 eV). This peak is used
 because of the carbon contamination usually observed in XPS experiments.

This is not my own choice (I am not XPS experimentalist) but what I 
have read in some XPS papers.

The main point: experimental calibration of the binding energy scale 
requires a reference energy.

C1s is surely not the most accurate choice. From discussions with XPS 
users: this peak is used because, if you don't clean your C free 
sample, you have C that may originate from contamination in the 
analysis chamber (vacuum pump oil) and this C is not expected to form 
chemical bonds with the sample.

But as you said in your email you can have other C on the surface and 
the reference is not expected to be very accurate.


XPS energies have to be calibrated using the Au (or Ag) Fermi energy !

A better choice than C1s but unfortunately not used by all the XPS 
experimentalists...



and the other question: And for an insulator when the extra 1/2 (or 
1) electron goes into the

An insulater will most probably charge if you do XPS, and the 
energies do not tell you much.

Can we consider that charge mainly shifts the energy scale? What is 
the effect on the binding energy differences for a given sample?

[Wien] Calculating XPS spectra in Wien2k

2008-09-18 Thread Laurence Marks
We need to differentiate two things:
a) How one removes any offsets experimentally with an insulator. Often
cleaning the sample is not an option -- this may also destroy it.
b) What reference level one should use in a Wien calculation: the T=0
Fermi energy, the T=Room Temperature Fermi Energy (TEMP/TEMPS), a core
level well away from the target atom (for a supercell), the vacuum
level (if available)?

One has to be careful of possible artifacts due to a change in E_F in
the cell because there is not a large enough bulk reservoire to set it
correctly, artifacts in the total energy due to charged cell issues
(which I think the Slater method avoids), artifacts due to
interactions between core-holes (or half holes) in adjacent
supercells, plus probably others I've not thought of yet.

[Wien] wien2k_08.3

2008-09-18 Thread Oleg Artamonov
Dear Wien2k team leaders,

May I ask you to update the executable version of the Wien2k (wien2k_08.3) for 
downloading. 
Thank you in advance,
Oleg. 



 Dear WIEN2k users,
 
 the new release, WIEN2k_08.3 is out.
 It fixes many of the problems related to the new QTL package (thanks to 
 P.Novak),
 PAIRHESS has been improved (L.Marks), and some more fixes and features have 
 been
 added. Thanks to F.Boucher the instructions for spin-polarized OPTICS
 have been improved.
