Dear Kefan

I suppose the problem is here

pseudotype=1

"1" indicates that you want a single-projector PP, as explained in the ld1.x manual

   Variable:       pseudotype

   Type:           INTEGER
   Description:    1 ... norm-conserving, single-projector PP
                         IMPORTANT: if pseudotype=1 all calculations are done
using the SEMILOCAL form, not the separable nonlocal form

                   2 ... norm-conserving PP in separable form (obsolescent)
All calculations are done using SEPARABLE non-local form IMPORTANT: multiple projectors allowed but not properly
                         implemented, use only if you know what you are doing

                   3 ... ultrasoft PP or PAW


but you require multiple projectors

You may use this one that is in the psl database

cat > V.$fct-n-nc.in << EOF
 &input
   title='V',
   zed=23.,
   rel=$nrel,
   config='[Ar] 4s2.0 4p0.0 3d3.0',
   iswitch=3,
   dft='$gfun'
 /
 &inputp
   pseudotype=2,
   file_pseudopw='V.$fct-n-nc.UPF',
   author='TM',
   lloc=0,
   nlcc=.true.,
   tm=.true.

4S  1  0  2.00  0.00  2.35  2.35  0.0
EOF

Or if you need 3s and 3p semicore states you can either try to generate a new PP using pseudotype=2 (not recommended) or use one of the ONCV PPs you find, for example, here

Hi there,


I'm trying to use ld1.x to generate a Vanadium Norm Conserving pseudopotential with atomic orbitals so that I can calculate density of states with r2scan hybrid functional.


I'm a beginer using ld1.x and now I'm encounting all different kinds of error message. One of the most confusing error is "ps-label wrong?" I'm not sure what is wrong with my input file.


Here's my input file, it is based on the input file found in V.pbe-spnl-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF on QE website.


BTW, if there's any other method to walk around generating pseudopotential myself, it is greatly appreciated.


&input
atom='V',
dft='PBE',
config='[Ar] 3d3 4s2 4p0',
rlderiv=2.90,
eminld=-4.0,
emaxld=2.0,
deld=0.01,
nld=3,
iswitch=3
/
&inputp
pseudotype=1,
nlcc=.true.,
lloc=-1,
rcloc=1.41,
file_pseudopw='V.pbe-sp-rrkj.UPF'
rho0=0.001
