Which pseudopotential are you referring to? In any case: no, it does not contain "core" 3d states, for sure. Paolo On Thu, May 30, 2019 at 3:54 PM Amreen Bano wrote: > Dear all, > > I am working Oxygen based clusters. After performing the Pdos calculation > i found that O-3d states are also

[QE-users] Core wavefunction

Dear QE experts, I have tried to generate an Ga Pseudopotentials for theoretical spectroscopy by ld1.x. Firstly, I need to have all electron (AE) wave functions including 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p core states and valence states. I'm having some troubles since the output file (ld1.wfc) only gives 2s 2p 3s

Hi Mehrdad, Just a few more thoughts: 1) Which reference state are you using for Fe? Jiang et al. use ferromagnetic BCC Fe in Acta Materialia 56, 3236–3244 (2008). This paper uses constant volume rather than constant (zero) pressure calculations. I would definitely do spin polarized

Has anyone had this experience where one of the dynamical matrices produced by ph.x was an empty file? I tried adding trans=.true. to the ph.in file but this is the default and should of been already included. I executed the ph.x command but I am afraid I will have the same results and the

Dear Michal 3.7x with respect to what ? your cut and paste refers to the wall time and the total cpu time per mpi task, they differ because you are using thread parallelism. if you don't have memory issues I would try to increase the number of mpi processes decreasing the number of thread

Dear all, I am working Oxygen based clusters. After performing the Pdos calculation i found that O-3d states are also present. Why this is so? Is this an error in the PP file or something else. Kindly suggest me the if there is any problem with this PP. Thanks in advance. Amreen.

Thanks for your attention to my question Actually, i defined a supercell (2*2*2), used USPP-PBE.I adjusted the cutoff according to what was proposed for it (~70) and for ecut_rho (~400). for scf convergence, i set conv=1e-6, ant at here, i set mixing beta~0.04 (it helped to reach to convergence
