Dear Ghadiyali,

the values of emaxpos and eopreg should be chosen such that the dipole is within the vacuum region of your system. For example, if the 2D system is centered around z = 0, eamp = 0.49 and eopreg 0.02 are a reasonable choice. In the end, you need to check that the density is not overlapping with the dipole by plotting the charge density (pp.x with plot_num=0) and the total potential (pp.x with plot_num=1 or 11). The value of eopreg depends on the size of your unit cell and the number of real-space points in the z-direction. I think that within the distance of emaxpos and emaxpos+eopreg there should be at least a few grid points.

Regards

Thomas

Dear all,


I intend to do calculations on a bilayer system with perpendicular electric field applied to it, as per the documentation and few forum post I am required to do following modifications:

&CONTROL
  tefield               =       .true.,
  dipfield             =       .true.,
&SYSTEM
  emaxpos           =       0.5D0,
  eopreg              =      0.1D0,
  edir                    =       3, ! To set z direction
  eamp                 =       0.0105,

But I not sure as how to select the values of emaxpos and eopreg, can any one inform as how it is required to be set.
