Hi,
 
As the subject title says, I am intereted in calculations of workfunction for a 
given slab (surface). (I'm afraid that this topic may have been covered, but as 
I did some search on the pw_forum archive, I couldn't find a result though.)
 
How can workfunction be calculated in the code?  As the total potential can be 
calculated using pp.x (plot_num=1), can work-function be the difference between 
the potential energy at the vacuum (in a supercell) and the Fermi energy which 
is given by the code?
 
Thanks.
