Once you get all the .dyn files from the ph.x run, use the following input to
q2r.x to get the force constants:
&input
fildyn=’Si.dyn', zasr='simple', flfrc=’Si.ifc2’
/
Then use the following input to matdyn.x:
&input
asr='simple', amass(1)= 28.0855
flfrc=’Si.ifc2', flfrq=’Si.freq', q_in_band_form=.true.
/
6 ! number of high-symmetry points
0.0 0.0 0.0 200
0.0 0.0 1.0 200
etc.
The coordinates of the high symmetry points should be in cartesian coordinates.
200 points will be calculated for each segment. The phonon dispersion is in the
.gp output file.
