[Pw_forum] How to calculate DOS at the Fermi Energy?

Error message may not be optimally clear, but they are not misspelled, usually. pp.x reads the data file produced by the second pw.x run, which overwrites the contents of the data file written in the first pw.x run. So pp.x sees tetrahedra and tetrahedra are not implemented for the calculation of local dos. The value of the gaussian broadening taken in input by dos.x is used by dos.x and cannot propagate to other codes (dos.x does not change the data file produced by pw.x). By the way: it doesn't make sense to perform calculations with tetrahedra (useful for DOS) and throw the results away by using gaussian broadening for DOS P. --- Paolo Giannozzi, Dept of Chemistry, Univ.

[Pw_forum] Spectra from GW and TDDFPT
Thanks for your recommendation and reply, mohsen and Giuseppe. So, Giuseppe, i understand what 's your meaning is that the GWW and TDDFPT in QE distribution (4.3) can be used for different purposes, but they are both accurate in their fields. In addition, they both have the advantage of efficient computation speed becuase they used different method from the tranditional methods. Is it? Thanks again.

Within the above limitations, the computational cost of both methods can be considered rather low. HTH Giuseppe On Wednesday 13 April 2011 13:59:50 mohsen modaresi wrote: > Dear Jiayu Dai, > Prof. R.

Dear Jiayu Yes, it is. With only one additional warning: the TDDFPT code works only at Gamma (and fixed occupations). It is not designed to deal with periodic systems where you need k-points, but (in my experience) it works well with molecules.

[Pw_forum] Spectra from GW and TDDFPT
Dear users, It is well known that GW method can give much more accurate band gap since it considers many body interaction, and thus it can give more accurate optical properties. What i am thinking is that what's the difference between the optical properties from TDDFPT and GW. I mean, TDDFPT has the same accuracy as the GW method? or what's the advantage of TDDFPT over the GW except the computationl cost? Thanks a lot.

I don't think you'll need so many digits... anyhow if you add a few digits in the output and you tighten the conv_thr to less than 1.d-10 the numbers you'll get should be self-consistent at that level... however, it would be extremely difficult to converge k-point sampling and/or cutoff at that accuracy. not to mention the uncertain error due to the choice of xc. stefano On 04/13/2011 06:30 AM, Shyam Khambholja wrote: > Thank you Dr. Stefano. > > I need it for calculation of themodynamic properties. > > > > ___ > Pw_forum mailing list > Pw_forum at pwscf.org > http://www.democritos.it/mailman/listinfo/pw_forum -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
