Regarding the question of temperature effects, let me add some remarks about electronic temperature. Under diverse circumstances (e.g. laser heating) it is possible for the electrons and phonons to have very different temperatures for experimentally meaningfully long times.   Of course it also

Dear Prof. Peter, Thank you very much for taking my query into consideration. Your reply gives me some understanding and now I should read the paper you mentioned and some other related appropriate literature. Thank you very much. Regards Bhamu On Sat, Apr 18, 2020 at 9:12 PM Peter Blaha

If you are lucky, yes, but in general, the answer is NO !!! The lattice parameter is only a "mean value", and is a "prerequisite" for a finit temp calculation. But think about: what means "Termperature" ? It vibrations, which are excited more or less with T. The atoms move around heavily

Dear Prof. L. Marks, I do not think that this query is not related to this list. Yes, it can be asked somewhere else but as Wien2K is my primary DFT tool so I thought to ask here. In many research papers we see that the authors report lattice parameters at 0K and 300K. If I take lattice parameters

I really think such questions are inappropriate for this list. If you have general physics questions such as this, you should ask on some appropriate list. This list is an appropriate place for real problems with using Wien2k. _ Professor Laurence Marks "Research is to see what everybody

Dear Experts, Could you please confirm that if I have temperature dependent lattice parameters, from DFT calculation, then whatever properties like band, phonon, elastic, ... , I compute will be considered as temperature dependent ? Yes, ionic positions should be relaxed what I know. My own
