I've noticed from literature that in modeling adsorption phenomenon,
most researchers fix the lower portions of the slab in use whiles

Is there any experimental and theoretical physics that serves as a

You're right, I miscalculated the value for total_magnetization. I used
that of the slab(48 atoms: tot_magnetization=96) for the bulk(4 atoms:

Dear All,
How does one know or can one tell from the content of the output file of

Thank you.

In trying to validate the computational methods and configuration of my

Hello Everyone,
How does or to what extent does changing your ecut along with ecutrho

For instance if you used 60Ry to compute 'delta H' for reactants and you

I'm trying to calculate the work function of a pure slab as such I'm

When I run my scf calculation and compute the vacuum potential, I get
very small values for the vacuum potential. I get a vacuum potential of
about 0.8 eV and a fermi energy of -

Hello Francesca,
- From my experience, you would have to test them by using them to
compute basics properties such as lattice parameter, bulk, modulus, etc.
and that would help you make an informed decision on that.

I use the pseudopotential Ni.pbe-nd-rrkjus.UPF to optimized the pure

Is it wrong to use C.pbe-van_ak.UPF for carbon and O.pbe-van_ak.UPF for

Hello Julia,
The outcome of your calculations could mean two possible things:
1. The atomic positions are in the best spatial locations you can get.
As in they are already optimized.
2. The version 5.0.3 of Q.E is having a problem, so you might want to
try other stable versions.

Hi all,
I'm determining the lattice parameter of Nickel and my convergence test
is giving me 3.42 Angstroms against and experimentally determined 3.52.
Previous calculations by other people are showing 3.49 and 3.52
Angstroms as again.
What could be wrong with my parameters or calculations.
