To All,
I think I know the answer to this question, but I'd like an expert opinion, nonetheless. What are the units of "isosurface" plotted by XCrySDen using output from pp.x passed through a .xsf file? I suspect it's something like normalized total cell charge (i.e., "e=1 times the number of filled non-core pseudo-orbitals per unit cell) divided by a.u.^2. Suppose I have a structure I'm examining with XCrySDen with max/min values, let's say (+3,-1), and I select +0.25. What exactly is this number in "The Creator's Units," sometimes known as SI. I've poured through the source code of chdens.f, but get lost trying to guess the pneumonic of each variable. Seriously, I'm writing up a paper comparing the distribution of charge in various (n,m) carbon nanotubes, and want to avoid dumb errors.
