[Wien] hf error -monolayer

Dear I succeeded in installing Wien2k.23.2 as you advised me. Now , Init_lapw and run_lapw finished ok . Again , I tried to do hf_calculation for MoS2.bulk , the hf_calculation is well done. I tried hf_calculation for the second time for MoS2 bulk, there is a stop error. I tried for another bulk

You should look at the BVS, i.e. "grep Bond *tnn" and compare it to what you have for bulk. You will see that you surface has bad values, so will be unstable. You need to do a lot more thinking and analysis (weeks) to find a chemically reasonable surface. --- Professor Laurence Marks (Laurie)

Yes, R cells are first converted into H (making it already 3 times larger than the primitive R cell). The "accepting repeat atoms at z=0" makes the non-stoichiometry. It leads to 2 identical surfaces and inversion symmetry (cheaper calc), but non-stoiciometry. It is not always clear what the

The 6ql slab is created with 1x1x2 supercell with vacuum in Z direction and accepting repeat atoms at z=0 (using x supercell program). At first the x supercell convert rhombohedral cell into hexagonal and then from hexagonal cell I have created the 1x1x2 supercell and then I took the structure

sgroup does NOT add atoms. It will only split or combine positions (and eventually even reduce the unit cell). It must come from supercell. PS: I hope you have used MSR1a method for relaxation ? MSR1 does not move atoms. Are the final forces all small ? Am 24.07.2023 um 10:30 schrieb Burhan

I'm not sure how you get a non-stoichimetric cell with a multiplicative number of unit cells, unless you said you want to repeat the atom at z=0. Of course, without this extra layer, you may not have inversion and get 2 different surface terminations in one calculation. This is the usual

Yes, I have the relax the atomic positions using msr1 method. I my 6ql slab I have one extra Te atom that generates from sgroup. Is there any problem with that? Or it just created for symmetry purposes?? On Mon, 24 Jul, 2023, 1:56 pm Peter Blaha, wrote: > Hi, > a) Your vacuum is very large,

Hi, a) Your vacuum is very large, which can create problems and cost a lot of cpu time. 20 Ang are more than enough. b) As mentioned before: this is a doped SC, so most likely never a gap Is it intended ? d) Did you relax the slab in PBE ? Just the bulk coordinates are probably

It seems that this calculation was never going to converge. Try to run lmBJ-SOC just after GGA-PBE-SOC (and save_lapw) in the same directory. Is lmBJ without SOC also showing such problems? On 24.07.2023 10:04, Burhan Ahmed wrote: The results from the last 20 iterations (for lmbj calculation)

That is very true. I made the slab using the tutorial available in the wien2k user manual by executing x-supercell program. What I found is that the 6ql supercell consist of an extra Te atom. But whenever I try to remove this atom I got multiplicity error. Sir, what is best possible way of making

Could you show how the total energy and distance charge evolve during the iterations of the lmBJ-SOC calculation (grep for :ENE and DIS in case.scf)? Before using lmBJ-SOC, did you succeed to converge a calculation on your system using another method, like GGA-PBE or lmBJ without SOC? If yes,
