Re: [SIESTA-L] pseudopotential question
Dear all, As you know, there is a pseudopotential file database in this website. Are pseudopotential files in the database reasonable? As I tested a simple h2o calculation to compare H and O pseudopotential files in siesta with H and O pseudopotential files in the database, the Energy value is a quite different. As I checked those output files, the cutoff raidus is different from each other. Dear HeeSung Choi, it is usually useless to judge by the absolute value of total energy (not only in Siesta but in all-electron codes as well) What you should compare are physically meaningful differences. When testing a psedopotential you do it by looking at the difference values of total energy between different test configurations. In calculation of real systems this would be, say, binding energy, or energy differences between given magnetic configurations. I think such physical results produced by the (H,O) pseudopots from Siesta package and from the Abinit database will be very close. In any case it is always a user's responsibility to decide where these or that pseudos are reasonable (depending on, for which particular problem). Best regards Andrei Postnikov I put those Energy values from two output files. Plases let me know your opnions. Thank you. 1) h2o calculation with pseudopotential file from database siesta: Program's energy decomposition (eV): siesta: Eions = 674.103101 siesta: Ena =85.208373 siesta: Ekin= 340.284488 siesta: Enl = -100.636934 siesta: DEna=-3.485784 siesta: DUscf = 0.772125 siesta: DUext = 0.00 siesta: Exc = -113.071379 siesta: eta*DQ = 0.00 siesta: Emadel = 0.00 siesta: Ekinion = 0.00 siesta: Eharris = -465.035046 siesta: Etot= -465.032213 siesta: FreeEng = -465.032213 siesta: Final energy (eV): siesta: Kinetic = 340.284488 siesta: Hartree = 384.329642 siesta:Ext. field = 0.00 siesta: Exch.-corr. =-113.071379 siesta: Ion-electron = -1065.070924 siesta: Ion-ion = -11.504041 siesta: Ekinion = 0.00 siesta: Total =-465.032213 2) h2o calculation with pseudopotential file from siesta package siesta: Program's energy decomposition (eV): siesta: Eions = 815.854478 siesta: Ena = 175.154321 siesta: Ekin= 353.755904 siesta: Enl = -63.083659 siesta: DEna=-3.346061 siesta: DUscf = 0.755426 siesta: DUext = 0.00 siesta: Exc = -113.203337 siesta: eta*DQ = 0.00 siesta: Emadel = 0.00 siesta: Ekinion = 0.00 siesta: Eharris = -465.824667 siesta: Etot= -465.821884 siesta: FreeEng = -465.821884 siesta: Final energy (eV): siesta: Kinetic = 353.755904 siesta: Hartree = 385.159853 siesta:Ext. field = 0.00 siesta: Exch.-corr. =-113.203337 siesta: Ion-electron = -1080.056603 siesta: Ion-ion = -11.477701 siesta: Ekinion = 0.00 siesta: Total =-465.821884

Re: [SIESTA-L] pseudopotential and basis set for Zn with semicorestates
Zn is not a good example of using SZ for semicore Well, it's easy to check - just take SZ and then DZ and compare total energy. If the impact of DZ is similar to that of DZ for s and p states, then it is worth using DZ. Of course checking for exact properties of interest would be more precise but longer.
Re: [SIESTA-L] pseudopotential and basis set for Zn with semicorestates
Yes, Andrei is absolutely right: Zn is not a good example of using SZ for semicore - it's d-states overlap with s-band, and therefore should be more considered as valence. SZ should be OK for such elements as As or Ga, where these states are located deeper in energy, and therefore are more localized. But in any case, as Andrei pointed out, everything depends on what you would like to obtain, and you should always check your particular desired quantity for convergence. (I saw results of big supercell calculations, where people freeze Zn 3d, putting it in pseudopotential. However, I would not recomment that ...) Thanks for your comment, Andrei! Vladimir. Andrei Postnikov wrote: On Fri, 26 Jan 2007, Vladimir Timochevski wrote: | Usually semicore states are quite localized, and from my experience a SZ-type | of orbitals is sufficient for them.

You'll probably get the position of Zn3d band right with SZ, but lattice parameter, elastic propeties, and phonons could be quite off. 3d of Zn is hardly a good semicore, it is really too close and contribute substantially to bondings. Best regards, Andrei
Re: [SIESTA-L] pseudopotential and basis set for Zn with semicore states
I also have some questions about the semicore pseudo potential and basis. You know, generally, when we generate a psf, we can use the Default DZP basis to check whether or not the psf is good enough by checking the standard band (for examle, got from LAPW calculation), and also calculate the lattice constant,compard with the experimental data. However, if we generate a semicore psf, we have also to specify the basis set ourself. How to make sure the basis you specify is the good one? So, any tricky things here? Thank you!

Re: [SIESTA-L] pseudopotential problem
Hi, I would add the following option to what Marcos says: You can start with a standard atom inp file. See the atom manual for details. Then do an all electron calculation with atm. So you really want an ae.inp kind of file. Keep in mind, atm, unlike siesta, has a very *rigid* readout format, so *keep all spacings in your input files as in the template ae.inp file* that you can get, for instance on the Tutorial directory of atom. Otherwise you will get all kind of errors during the ae.sh script run. Once you have a successful atm calculation, go to your Bi.ae.inp directory, that will be created if a successful run did happen, and opent the OUT file. In this file you will have a bunch of data. Go to the channels you want your pseudo to have and dismiss the previous channels (you get all channels here 'cause this is an all-electron calculation). Check the biggest r extr for the channels you are interested in. For instance, from one of my files: . . . n = 5 l = 1 s = 0.5 a extr 0.290 -0.408 0.601 -1.120 b extr-0.055 0.022 -0.013 0.008 r extr 0.037 0.138 0.351 0.979 r zero 0.075 0.216 0.528 r 90/99 % 1.597 2.266 . . . (and assuming I wanted the 5p orbital to be in the valence) I would write down 0.97 as a starting point for my rc in my pseudo. You get the idea. Please PLOT the radial part of your all electron result. Your rc must be away enough from parts where your wavefunctions cross the r axis (ie, bigger than the biggest r zero value). Okay, suppose you wrote down your r extrs. Now take a template pg (or pe for that matter) file. Replace the rcs in that file (and the atomic number as well as the pseudo flavor to suit!) by the ones you just got. Sometimes is safe to choose one of your r_extrs for all rcs (the smallest, the biggest, some value in between,...) Run the pg.sh script. Go back to your output dir (something like Bi.pe.inp) and plot the wavefuncions once more. pg(pe) wavefunctions should overlap outside rc. On a more stringent test of your pseudo, you can check in the atom manual how to test for transferability. All this is good but, -sometimes atm changes your input radii (See OUT file for actual taken values). -even though you are happy with your pseudo, siesta discovers GHOST states (...and crashes). Then you have to go back to your pseudo inp file and modify some options slightly. -if your pseudo makes for a sucessful siesta run, do *check* some bulk properties: Lattice constants and the like. Bottom line is, it will take you a couple of days to get comfortable with the process of generating pseudos but it is worth (and perhaps even necessary if you consider using SIESTA in the long run) the effort. Best regards, Salvador.

Don't keep the e-mail short when you have a problem whose cause you cannot identify. In some cases, a more lengthy (but not too lengthy) explanation is necessary, in order to identify possible sources of error. So, what I did is: I went to SIESTA webpage, then to LINKS and there you can find ABINIT with the list of pseudopotentials that Siesta can use. So I simply downloaded GGA (PBE) Hartwigsen_Goedecker-Hutter pseudopotentil for Bi as a text file. I named it Bi.psf. So there is your problem. If you look at the abinit pseudopotential format and the .psf format, you will see that they are completely different. What the link means is that siesta can use thses potentials because they are norm-conserving, but they have to be in the appropriate format. If you can find (or anyone in the list can provide) a format conversion tool from the abinit format to the siesta format, it will be great. Otherwise, you can do: a) See if, in the abinit file, the core radii are specified. I don't remember if siesta has HGH pseudopotential generation (probably not), but you could use the rc's from HGH as a starting point for generating your own TM GGA pseudo using atom, testing it on elemental Bi. If this is not good, you can do b) a search in the literature, find some paper with calculations for Bi which states the channels and core radii for the GGA TM pseudopotential are used, and generate your own pseudo from those. Or, c) you could ask, on the list, if anyone has a good pseudo for Bi. I had pseudopotential for Si from before. And then started simulation. I know that pseudopotential for Si is ok, because I did some calculations with silicon in diamond before, and everything worked fine. Probably because the pseudo was in the right file format (.psf). In simulation I am using generalized gradient approximation and also PBE parametrization of the
Re: [SIESTA-L] pseudopotential problem
Hi Bozidar, That really depends on the kind of error you are obtaining on the reading of the pesudo by siesta. There are several points in which your e-mail provides incomplete information: 1) Have you downloaded the pseudopotential itself? If it's giving an error, then it might be corrupted. Difficult to happen, but could be. 2) Have you downloaded the input file and then generated the pseudo using atom? If so, then you may (inappropriately) be getting ghost states and this is the kind of error Chun is referring to; it has been discussed on the list a while ago. If this is the case (ghost states from a pseudo which is known to have none), then you should recompile atom with a good compiler (intel is very good), with -O2 optimization, and NOT -O3, which is known to, in some cases, induce to numerical errors. So, to really help you, you should provide more information on what you have actually done. Best regards, Marcos Hi, I think you must have used the different compilers to make the siesta and the atom. You can recompile the atom using the same compiler you used to make siesta, than generate the pseudopotential again. Good luck.

[SIESTA-L] Pseudopotential Charge Density Issue
Hello Everyone, Over the past few months I have been trying to resolve an issue related to the total integrated charge density. I have been trying to create pseudopotentials for Cd and recently Si using the atom program. Atom produces two files AECHARGE and PSCHARGE. Now one of the test conditions of a good pseudopotential is that the total integrated charge density for each wavefunction should agree within a given rc (which means that the pseudopotentail duplicates the correct core charge). According to the Atom manual you can do some basic math and get the total charge as a function of the radius. Then I should be able to simple sum up all the point to Log Der radius. My isues is this it seems that I usully get a total integrated charge desnisty for the pseudopotential case that is 10-13% less than the AE case. They do match at the specified LogDer Radius. Why does this occur? Does SIESTA renormalize the pseudopotentials. If this is so how do you check the pseudopotental for the necessary test condition before performing a run in SIESTA?
Re: [SIESTA-L] Pseudopotential core correction
Hi Ranier, I the original paper by Louie et. al (PRB 26, 1728 (1982)) suggests that: ... r_o may chosen as the radius where the core charge density is from 1 to 2 times larger than the valence charge density. The ATOM program chooses r_o so that the core charge density is equal to the valence charge density. A more recent paper by Porezag et. al (PRB 60, 14132 (1999)) argues that this is not the best choice for r_o in general.

[SIESTA-L] pseudopotential and unbound reference states
Hi. This is more of question on generating TM pseudopotentials in general and is not necessarily specific to SIESTA. When using the polarization orbitals in your basis, it is necessary to have a pseudopotential for the next higher angular momentum state. For example, same I'm doing Zr: n l occ - 5 0 2.0 5 1 0.0 4 2 2.0 4 3 0.0 If I want to have polarization orbitals for the 4d e-, I need to have the pseudopotential for the 4f. Now, the real 4f orbitals are unbound in neutral Zr and I know that SIESTA merely uses orbitals with f symmetry. How does one choose an appropriate r_c for the 4f orbital? Usually, r_c should be picked so that its after the last node of the AE wavefunction. But there is only an unbound reference state. So it has no nodes. Bests, -- Nichols A.
