Thank you for reply, professor. I understand the regular routine implemented in 
QE where the long-range contribution is added in reciprocal space. My point is 
can I get the correct dynamical matrix just by making inverse Fourier 
transformation of the full(short+long) IFCs in a large real space?

主题: Re: [QE-users] phonon dispersion relation from the full IFCs

The full dynamical matrix, including long-range forces, is computed by ph.x. 
The latter do not require any fine grid, but just the computation of Born 
effective charges, as explained in: P. Giannozzi et al, PRB 43, 7231 (1991), 
Eq. 18.  Regards — SB

Dear all,


As we know, the short-ranged IFCs are available by QE. The dynamical matrices 
are obtained by making inverse Fourier transformation of the short-ranged IFCs, 
and then add back the long-ranged dipole-dipole contribution in the reciprocal 
space. This paper(X. Gonze et al, PRB 50. 13035 (1994)) provides the formula of 
long-ranged force constants. I wonder that is it feasible to obtain the correct 
phonon spectrum from the full IFCs(short+long)? Of course, the long-ranged IFCs 
should be gotten in a much longer range(maybe 100*100*100).


Any comments will be appreciated!
