Dear all, I am looking to know the possibility of asr rule for non zero q point (along any other special point from GAMMA direction) Is it possible???. If no, How can PWscf phonon dispersion plots contains LO-TO splitting in whole phonon dispersion relation! Help me in this doubt...

Dear Shaofeng vc-relax calculations are VERY sensitive to unconverged wfcs and densities. The corresponding ecutwfc and ecutrho variables are generally kept on the low side in the examples, because fast execution is more important than accuracy in this case. So be sure that your results are
