Hi

I was also surprised to discover it.  Matdyn.x prints all the projected  phononic dos in the dos files, they are the columns on the right of the total dos.

Hello,

I was consulting the reference materials on materialsproject.org <https://materialsproject.org/materials/mp-830/> for a semiconductor.  In the section on phonon results, they had the phonon density of states plotted with the contributions of each type of atom as well as the total DOS.    I have calculated the DOS of a system before using QE, but only did the total DOS of the system.  Does QE have the capability to give similar results?

Thanks,
Brad


Dear Brad,


for phonons I do not think there is any ready-made tool (but I could be wrong). For phonon dispersions, we have implemented an online phonon visulizer, based on the code by Henrique Miranda:
https://www.materialscloud.org/work/tools/interactivephonon
that allows you to explore graphically/interactively phonon dispersions
https://www.materialscloud.org/discover/2dstructures/details/BN

For the phonon DOS, if you have done a calculation with QE, you can at zero cost interpolate/diagonalize the dynamical matrices on fine q meshes, and build the DOS yourself. But maybe others have some tool ready to use.
