Dear PW users,
I met a problelm during phonon calculation. When I
use accoustic sum rule (ASR) with dynmat.x on a system
with soft mode, the positive frequencies were only
slightly affected, but the soft mode frequency changed
a lot. In this case, can I still use ASR and trust the
soft mode frequency given by dynmat.x?
Bye the way, I know it is possible to apply accoustic
sum rule to effective charge manually. If I only do
phonon calculation at a single q point, say X point
for silicon, can Is there a way (manually if
possible)to ensure accoustic sum rule as done by
dynmat.x with phonon dispersion curves?
Any comments would be much appreciated!
