Re: [Wien] external magnetic field using orb with spin-orbit interaction

Thank you for the comments. This is option 4 of orb package "Interaction with the external magnetic field" mentioned in page 127 of UG around (7.2). So, U=0.   After your mail I realized that both "case.energysodn" AND "case.energysoup" contain the information I was looking for (splitting of

Dear wien2k community, I am trying to estimate the g-factors in bulk semiconducting material. From the mail list and user guide I learned that orb may be used for this purpose (as discussed in beginning of this thread [1] and in section 7.4 of UG).  Using the GaAs as a reference semiconductor I

Ups. Sorry. I was not sure what you really calculated. If you do plain GaAs (I somehow thought about magnetic impurities in GaAs), the starting with runsp_c_lapw is perfectly fine. On 9/29/20 1:13 PM, Mikhail Nestoklon wrote: Thank you for the comments. This is option 4 of orb package

You miss the physics of spin-orbit interaction. Spin-orbit MIXES spin-up and dn (spin is no longer a good quantumnumber). This means that each eigenvalue will contain contributions of spin-up AND spin-dn. In many cases one spin will dominate, but they can also be completely mixed. Of
