Re: [QE-users] Requesting Help With Spin Orbit Coupling Spin-Separated Bands Extraction

Dear Professor Luiz, I apologize for my delayed response; I had exams to appear for. Thank you for informing me about the "lsigma" keyword. While it doesn't solve my problem of segregating spin-up bands from spin-down ones, it gives me the expectation values of the total angular momentum along

[QE-users] Error: problems computing cholesky

Hi everyone, I am very new as a QE user. I am wondering if anyone can suggest me a direction to get rid of this error. I am running a scf calculation with blyp and LSDA flag on. After few iteration steps the job is stopping with this error. Please show me some direction. I can

If you know the space group number N, set variable "space_group=N", then set "nat" to the number of wyckoff positions (not of atoms), then provide atomic positions as follows ATOMIC_POSITIONS crystal_sg X 4c y where X=your atomic symbol, y=the value of parameter "y". Paolo On 09/03/2023

Usually, if there is x-ray data on single crystals, the wyckoff positions are given there. Alternatively, one can use evolutionary algorithms such as USPEX to generate stable structures but this could be time consuming. Cheers, Vahid Vahid Askarpour Department of physics and atmospheric

Re: [QE-users] How to Obtain External Parameters calculated through Self-Consistency calculations

2023-03-09 Thread Fabrizio Ferrari Ruffino
Hello, I am not sure what you mean with self-consistent calculated parameters. The ones you see in xc-infos.x are the default values of the libxc-functional external parameters, as you said. Maybe you mean that some of these parameters can be 'iteration dependent'? Can you point the equations in

1. It's not a problem of QE but of your machine 2. If you have MKL you should use the DFTI FFT libraries Paolo On 3/8/23 23:56, Abdul Muhaymin via users wrote: Dear users, I am trying to run pw.x in a cluster (centos) that requires loading three modules: intel, impi, and quantum-espresso.

Again, to be checked, but I believe that just chaning Zval you can also use it as a Cooulomb pseudo for heavier atoms, e.g. the second row from Li onwards, that can be useful to do all-electron tests with QE (mind you, for second row you easily need 1000 Ry of ecutrho). Any comments on this

Good morning all, Is there anyone have worked with orthorhombic cell? I want to define the unit cell for orthorhombic with 4 atoms:(0,y,1/4),(0,-y, 3/4), (1/2, y+1/2, 1/4) and (-1/2, -y+1/2, 3/4). With wyckoff position (4c). I don’t have idea how define y. Do you have suggestions ? Thank you
