I make a supercell of dim 2 1 1 . But in the unit cell , I define a space group R-3c (167) rhombohedral structure , but after making the supercell its space group changed to C2 (5) .

This is not just a supercell, atoms are moved to phonons via force constants. Symmetry is reduced.

so it can be possible or either error .
I don't know about phonopy , that's why I have a doubt.
also after running the above command. There are too many supercell001.in <http://supercell001.in> upto supercell072.in <http://supercell072.in>.
which one is correct. for further scf, nscf, relax calculation in QE.

All of them. I.e. phonopy needs 72 calculations of forces in order to compute all the force constants. Btw a 2x1x1 supercell is very likely going to be too small for whatever you want to compute.

cheers



pl. Suggest me.

        Dear Neelam Swarnkar,


        I believe the space between "dim" and " =" in the phonopy
        command is causing the error. Please try the following command:

        "phonopy --qe -d --dim="2 1 1" -c filename.in <http://filename.in>"

        Dear expert and all

I am making a supercell of dim 2 1 1, i already installed phonopy-2.6.0 version , but it is showing me an error.
