[Pw_forum] Atomic position for Ni-Al alloy with BCC structure
Dear Paul, ? I think one of your pseudopotential need to be change for conformity. I try to run pw.x for your input file and noticed that there is overlapping between the two atoms. This the program complained. It is as a result of this that you are only seeing one atom in the matrix. ? ?

[Pw_forum] Atomic position for Ni-Al alloy with BCC structure
CsCl has the simple cubic structure, so ibrav=1. It's only called "BCC" because the atoms are on the sites of the BCC lattice, so if you replace Al by Ni you'd get a BCC Ni structure.

[Pw_forum] Can ph.x use 'cg' diagonalization?
Dear QE developer and users: I am using ph.x to calculate phonon dispersion. But I met a problem during my computation. My structure needs 12 dynamic matrics files. But after 3 *.dyn file were calculated, the error occurred during band structure calculation: Band Structure Calculation Davidson diagonalizaion with overlap %%% from cdiaghg: error #126 diagonalization (ZHEGV*) failed %%% Therefore, I changed to diagonalization='cg' in scf calculation and recalculate it, the problem remained. It seemed no matter which diag method I used in scf calculation, only Davidson algorithm is used in ph.x. Is it possible to use conjugate gradient in ph.x ? Thanks a lot. -- GAO Zhe CMC Lab, Materials Science & Engineering Department, Seoul National University, South Korea -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Thank you Professor Giannozzi. So it seems to be a hardware issue because I did not restart the job. I'm going to resubmit from scratch and see.
