You have either requested the semi-infinite direction along a non-periodic direction or your electrode calculation is erroneously setup.
To calculate the self-energy transiesta requires a supercell. The transfer matrix is equivalent to the coupling matrix between the unit-cell and the neighbouring unit-cell along the semi-infinite direction. 2017-04-06 9:37 GMT+02:00 azar ostovan <[email protected]>: > Dear Transiesta users, > > I am trying to run a transport calculation using TranSIESTA code but I got > the following error each time: > > nrows_g=768 nrows=768 sparsity=.9580 nnzs=565056, refcount: 3> > Electrode elec-x has no transfer matrix. > The self-energy cannot be calculated with a zero transfer matrix! > Electrode elec-x has no transfer matrix. > > could you please tell me what is wrong in my electrode calculation? > > > > All the best, > Azar > -- Kind regards Nick
