Well, this only noticed when I introduced a vacuum. Maybe the reason was I run nspin=2 with calculation='scf'. I will try it with calculation='relax'.  Thank you Stefano. On Thursday, February 4, 2016 9:50 PM, Stefano de Gironcoli wrote: Starting_magnetization

​Dear Giuseppe, Sorry for the delay. That might be some bugs in the plot_drho calculation, but I do not have your input file for the ground state calculation, so I cannot reproduce your error. I tried to do this calculation with another system, everything works fine. Can you follow the example

Dear QE users I have a couple of doubts. I want to calculate the band structure of a semiconductor, only in the vicinity of the Fermi Level. Basically, I want to reduce the value of the parameter 'nbnd'. I am interested to see the bands near the Fermi Energy, not the complete band structure. Is

Dear All I'm having problems when performing nontrivial runs of turbo_davidson.x and turbo_lanczos.x with 5.2.1 and 5.3.0 versions of QE. Let me say first that "trivial" runs (CH4 molecule with same pseudopotentials and cutoffs but a smaller 30 a.u.^3 cubic cell) work fine with all the tested

Dear Varma you may have to ask the authors of the paper for a more consistent help. As far as I know/understand from the paper you mention, the ACBN0 is a method to compute the value of the Hubbard U (based on an ancillary calculation performed on a gaussian basis set) but does not modifies the
