[Pw_forum] phonon lifetimes

2012-02-23 Thread Giuseppe Romano
Dear users,

I'm computing the anharmonic scattering time for bulk Silicon. While pw and
ph work as expected, d3 crashes. It seems there is some missing
parameter. Is "fild0rho" necessary? Below are the scripts.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Giuseppe

[Pw_forum] regarding stress in pw.x output file

A norm conserving Nitrogen pseudo-potential is likely to require much 
more that 28 Ry.
have you studied the convergence of your calculated energy and stress 
with respect to cutoff and k-point sampling ?

[Pw_forum] phonon calculation problem

2012-02-23 Thread Fen Hong
Dear PWscf users and developers,
The frequency calculation is very time-consuming.
I read one paper, for example, isocynide molecule, they
only calculated partial vibrational spectra instead of full one.
Because the difference between  frequencies  from this two ways is marginal.
When isocynide adsorbed on Au(111) surface, the vibration of surface is not
considered because gold has quite large atomic mass compared with that of
first row atoms.

What I want to know is how to calculated particle frequency by fix the
position of the surface atoms.
I tried ?nat_todo? in *.ph.in, but frequency  doesnot show is the out file.

Is there someone know how to do particle frequency
Thank you

Best Regards,
Takai

[Pw_forum] units of psi in e-ph coupling matrix element

Dr. Paolo,

Sorry to bother you again on this. I am familiar with the equation 
(1) in that file. However, it is still not clear to me how does 'g' has the 
units of energy (eV or Ry). Is the wave function psi considered unitless ?

[Pw_forum] POPULATION OF CHARGE

2012-02-23 Thread Giuseppe Mattioli

You can use the projwfc program to project Kohn-Sham wavefunction on  
an atom-centered basis set, and to calculate Lowdin charges, total and  
for different angular-momentum channels. This information is contained  
into the standard output. projwfc produces also a lot of other files.  
Maybe the population of each orbital is contained in one/some of the  
files...

Dear Alex:

Following the pwcond examples in QE-4.3.2, I calculated the complex bands for 
1D aluminum wire and I got the band.re and band.im output files. Because 
k_x,k_y = 0 is given in input file, so the first column in band.re is the real 
k_z. But for the first column in band.im, I cannot understand what is the 
meaning. Any clue?

Dear Yun-Peng.


Le 21 f?vrier 2012 14:46, Yunpeng Wang  a ?crit :

  PWscf authors and users: 

  I want to find answers to the following questions about PWCOND because I am 
new PWCOND user.

  1. Does nonequilibrium Greens function employed in PWCOND? 

PWCOND does not use NEGFs it calculates directly the scattering states 
in real space.
 
  Or, the effective potential in scattering region is self-consistently 
obtained or from 

  the effective potential from scattering region SCF calculation? 

It should be run after PW calculations, so it uses the SCF potential of the 
leads and the scattering region at equilibrium. It is therefore zero bias 
approach, no finite voltage is implemented yet.

best regards, 
Alexander

 
  In my opinion, effective potential is not self-consistently obtained.
  2. Is PWCOND applicable to finite-voltage case? In my opinion, it can not.

[Pw_forum] ZB ZnO vs WZ ZnO at HSE level

2012-02-23 Thread hannu.ko...@epfl.ch
Hi

It seems to me that:
1. You are using cubic cell of Zinc-blende structure so you should use  
ibrav=1.
2. You are using LDA PP with hse, which is dangerous. I think PBE PP  
would be more suitable, but more importantly
3. The last time I checked, NLCC doesn't work correctly with hybrids.  
It might be a good idea for somebody to add a warning for this.

all pseudopotentials and paw sets are "compatible".
Some specialized calculations may not be implemented
in all cases, though. Also note the following: the 
CP code uses for nonlinear core corections the same 
real-space approach as for the augmentation functions. 
As a consequence the "box grid" (nr1b, nr2b, nr3b)
has to be chosen big enough to accommodate all these
quantities.
