[QE-users] Convergence issue

2021-03-30 Thread Mayuri Bora
Dear QE users, I am experiencing an issue while incorporating SOC in the system. I have tried with relax, using different pseudopotentials (PAW, USPP, ONCV), varying convergence threshold, increasing electron maxstep, varying K-points etc in the input file. But still the convergence is not

Dear Quantum Espresso experts,  I am having trouble calculating the phonon bands of graphene. First, I took the cif-file of the already relaxed graphite cell from the Materials Project site https://next-gen.materialsproject.org/ and made graphene cell from it by hand.Then I relaxed the cell

The coordinates of the high-symmetry points in matdyn.in should be in cartesian not crystal because you are specifying q_in_band_form=.true. Cheers, Vahid Vahid Askarpour Department of physics and atmospheric science Dalhousie University Halifax, NS CANADA On Mar 30, 2021, at 11:19 AM, Evgenii

Dear Evgeniy, I use the following for my graphene dispersion. Please note that the actual coordinates depend on the PSP. 4 0.0 0.0 0.0 150 ! G 0.000 -0.577588 0.0 150 ! M -0.3334706 -0.577588 0.0 150 ! K 0.0 0.0 0.0 1 So the matdyn.x code will automatically set 150 points between the

You have specified the q-points in crystal fractionary units, hence you have to specify q_in_cryst_coord=.true. This can be safely used in conjunction with q_in_band_form, which is a completely unrelated option. Also: You way of specifying the cell parameters is discouraged and may cause

Hello you can take into account anharmonicity with the d3q code which is included in QE, but also has its own homepage at https://anharmonic.github.io/ where you may find more documentation and examples. In particular, I recently added an example on how to compute the vibrational spectral

Dear Vahid, If we use the default values of the q_in_band_form variables, then how do we find intermediate points between the points of high symmetry, as for example on this site https://www.afs.enea.it/buonocor/graphane-with-phonon.html ? Are intermediate points always needed, we noticed that in

While we are talking about interesting ways to include anharmonic effects, it's worth taking a look at SSCHA: http://sscha.eu/ Not necessarily computationally inexpensive. On Wed, 2021-03-31 at 07:20 +0900, Kazume NISHIDATE wrote: > > 2021/03/31 1:00、Lorenzo Paulatto のメール: > > > > Hello you
