Dear Hadi Arefi, ??Thanks for the quick response. In the second point I meant that in the paper" http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v488/n7413/full/nature11340.html" authors have calculated induced charge as ? ?(G111,E=X)-?(G111,E=0).They have also shown the charge density difference plot in supporting information. I am unable to understand how they have obtained the induced charge as a number.
?Thank you so much for your help. Regards, Mudit Dixit? On 21 February 2014 18:27, Hadi Arefi <hadi.arefi at tyndall.ie> wrote: > Dear Mudit, > > > > > > >My questions are following: > > >1.
