Hi All, I am very new to DFT calculations and Quantum Espresso. I am using the Quantum Mobile Aiida Quantum Espresso distribution to perform scf DFT-D3 calculations for ROY structures, however the energy I am getting is very low (~-40000 eV). The parameters file for the calculation is the following:
parameters = { 'CONTROL': { 'calculation': 'scf', }, 'SYSTEM': { 'ecutwfc': 47., # wave function cutoff in Ry based on the values of the SSSP pseudpotentials 'ecutrho': 360., # density cutoff in Ry based on the values of the SSSP pseudpotentials 'vdw_corr': 'DFT-D3', }, } I have also selected a 4x4x4 kpoints mesh. Can you provide any insights of what is going wrong? Many thanks! Nikos
