[Pw_forum] keep getting negative frequencies in phonon calculation

2015-08-08 Thread Khalid Ibne Masood Khalid
Dear Researchers, I think this is an old problem, but I require your advice about how to solve this problem. I am trying to calculate the phonon dispersion curve of a 2D insulator material, and followed example 02 of phonon program. In the ph.x input file I have used: tr2_ph=1.0d-12,

I have encountered such a problem for my studies. Taking care of following points may help you: 1- see the stress and pressure for your crystal. its force should be very low. 2- use large cutoff for wfn and rho, even much larger than the converged values against energy/atom or force/atom

Dear Mahya I agree with Axel, too. But some points for you: 1- The first thing, you should recognize your crystal symmetry, and choose proper ibrav 2- start the input file from PW examples, and change the commands according your need. 3- Always, I emphasize, always, check your input file with

[Pw_forum] Dielectric constant of Monolyer MoS2 in .ph

2015-08-08 Thread Kanak Datta
Dear researchers Is it possible to calculate static dielectric constant of mono/bi layer MoS2 using .ph package in quantum espresso? I have performed self consistent formulation already and have been using the following code for .ph package found in a tutorial: tr2_ph=1.0d-14,

Dear Kanak Datta if the system is considered metalic, it gives a error like "no elec. field with metals". Please do calculation in non-metalic condition. regards 2015-08-08 23:48 GMT+03:00 Kanak Datta : > Dear researchers > > Is it possible to calculate static dielectric
