[QE-users] Error in Boltztrap code, while performing Spin Orbit Coupling (SOC) calculation
Hi everyone, We have performed a calculation for material CoHfSi with spin orbit coupling (SOC), using BoltzTrap code. In SOC case, we choose the full relativistic pseudopotential and added two flags, flags are such as lspinorb = .true. noncolin = .true. I am getting an error after this command *btp2 interpolate -m 2 -e -0.5 ./ * The error is Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/hp/.local/bin/btp2", line 8, in sys.exit(btp2_main()) File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/interface.py", line 1315, in btp2_main parse_arguments() File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/interface.py", line 1304, in parse_arguments args.func(args) File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/interface.py", line 207, in parse_interpolate data = BoltzTraP2.dft.DFTData(args.directory, args.derivatives) File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/dft.py", line 501, in __init__ loaded = loader(directory, *args, **kwargs) File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/dft.py", line 469, in __init__ r = BoltzTraP2.io.parse_ESPRESSO_xml(filename) File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/io.py", line 1436, in parse_ESPRESSO_xml nruter.update(_parse_ESPRESSO_bands(xml_tree)) File "/home/hp/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/BoltzTraP2/io.py", line 1358, in _parse_ESPRESSO_bands raise ValueError( *ValueError: non-collinear ESPRESSO calculations are not supported yet* Please help me to solve this error. I have also done this calculation without spin orbit coupling, I was not getting any error. Without spin orbit coupling case, scalar relativistic pseudopotential is taken and those flags are not added (lspinorb = .true. noncolin = .true.)

Re: [QE-users] Requested some guidelines in First-principles molecular dynamics
Hi Dr. Paulatto, Thank you so much for your comments. Actually, The paper ( https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.77.125218 ) extracted the temperature of each configuration from the mean square displacement per atom of the configuration (GaAs). In the harmonic approximation, they determined the relationship between mean square displacement and temperature T from the phonon density of states of bulk GaAs calculated by Giannozzi et al. The equation as follows: [image: image.png] Here is the figure they generated [image: image.png] So, now If I can find out the RMS of GaAs using CPMD, I will try to observe the corresponding configuration of GaAs atoms. Finally, the atomic positions will be the input of Quantum Espresso pw.x etc ( I mean normally how do we calculate dielectric constant in QE). Can I use it ( https://anharmonic.github.io/thermal2/#d3_r2qx-code) for the same purpose?

Re: [QE-users] Requested some guidelines in First-principles molecular dynamics
I would guess that you calculate the static dielectric constant at the temperature-dependent volume (experimental, or quasi-harmonic) and you are 90% of the way there. Do you have a specific reason to believe that it would be proportional to the RMS ? Btw, the code d3_r2q.x included with the "anharmonic" package can compute the RMS from an inexpensive phonon calculation, maybe have a look at it before doing a large supercell MD. https://anharmonic.github.io/thermal2/#d3_r2qx-code cheers On 10/01/2024 19:35, Md.

Actually, I have to calculate Dielectric constant for GaAs for different temperatures (not 0 k). To do that, I need to extract atomic positions for different RMS using CPMD. If anyone know someone/ or give some guidelines, it would be great help for me. Thank you. On Tue, Jan 9, 2024, 2:09 PM Md.

Re: [QE-users] ph.x
Dear Elham, you can browse the source distribution, look for example to PHonon/examples/README, where the provided examples are listed. Then you can try to study those examples that fit your needs (many are for crystal structures). Moreover, there are tutorials available online, besides Google Search, you might find helpful the related QE web site page: https://www.quantum-espresso.org/tutorials/ Giovanni -- Giovanni Cantele, PhD CNR-SPIN c/o Dipartimento di Fisica Universita' di Napoli "Federico II" Complesso Universitario M.
