Re: [QE-users] error with qe 6.5

2021-02-12 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
It would be helpful to provide, together with an input, the pseudopotential
files or (better)  pointers to where they can be found. Anyway:
   ecutwfc=1.0D-6
looks small, doesn't it? Under which exact conditions do you get the error
you mention?

[QE-users] Regarding calculation of Deformation potential of 3D cubic CH3NH3PbI3 material

2021-02-12 Thread Sandeep Hundal
Dear Experts/Users
I am trying to find the mobility of 3D cubic CH3NH3PbI3  through
deformation potential theory using qe. For mobility calculation, one has to
find the deformation potential. Can someone please elaborate on how to find
the deformation potential of this cubic material? Deformation potential has
a "change in energy " term in the theoretical formulae: *deformation
potential = change in energy / (change in length/ original length)*. It
would be a great help if someone could help or suggest something in order
to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Sandeep

Dear Singaravelan,
you problem is input-dependent. Please provide full input, output (with both 
versions of QE), and pseudopotentials if you want a meaningfull answer.

[QE-users] Calculations converged in QE - 6.0 version is not converging in QE-6.7max version - Reg

2021-02-12 Thread singaravelan T R
Dear all,
I am working with Bi2Se3 compound and I am performing slab calculation.
three quantum layer calculations using 6.0 version gives the desired result
while performing scf calculations.
Whereas the same calculation(Same input file and same UPF) in version
6.7max is not converging. On opening the output file , I found that the
Harris Foulkes estimate is not displayed and scf accuracy was very large.
Kindly help me to understand where is the problem.
with thanks,

Re: [QE-users] k-points parallelization very slow

2021-02-12 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
Parallelization over k-points does very little communication but it is not
as effective as plane-wave parallelization in distributing memory. I also
noticed that on a typical multi-core processor the performances of k-point
parallelization are often less good than those of plane-wave
parallelization and sometimes much less good, for reasons that are not
completely clear to me.

A factor to be considered is how your machine distributes the pools across
the nodes: each of the 4 pools of 32 processors should stay on one of the
nodes, but I wouldn't be too sure that this is what is really happening.

In your test, there is an anomaly, though: most of the time of "c_bands"
(computing the band structure) should be spent in "cegterg" (iterative
diagonalization). With 4*8 processors:
 c_bands  :  14153.20s CPU  14557.65s WALL ( 461 calls)
 Called by c_bands:
 init_us_2:102.63s CPU105.55s WALL (1952 calls)
 cegterg  :  12700.70s CPU  13083.44s WALL ( 943 calls)
only 10% of the time is spent somewhere else,  while with 4*32 processors:
 c_bands  :  18068.08s CPU  18219.06s WALL ( 454 calls)
 Called by c_bands:
 init_us_2: 26.53s CPU 27.06s WALL (1924 calls)
 cegterg  :   2422.03s CPU   2451.72s WALL
75% of the time is not accounted for.
