[Pw_forum] electron-phonon interaction Spectral function a2F(w) is negative.

2013-05-03 Thread 李晓川
Dear all:
 When i computed the electron-phonon interaction,the a2F(w) was 
negative but approching to zero,for example:
 0.00913
0.00364
3.5E-4
-9.8E-4
-0.00113
-8.4E-4
-5.6E-4
-5.2E-4
-7.5E-4
  My question is how much does it effect the electron-phonon coupling constant 
and Tc.
Thanks for your answers.

[Pw_forum] Electro-optic tensor contribution

2013-05-03 Thread xirainbow
Dear all:
   In the Electro-optic tensor calculation, it writes in the OUTPUT
file:
*"  Electro-optic tensor: contribution #   1*
*.*
*  Electro-optic tensor: contribution #   2*
*"*

   Which one is ionic contribution? Which one is electronic
contribution?

  Thanks in advance ??

[Pw_forum] PHonon versions 5.0.2/5.0.3 can give very different frequencies as compared to older versions and the latest SVN builds

2013-05-03 Thread Brad Malone
Hi everyone,

I recently came across some phonon softening in a system calculated with
the 5.0.2 version of QE. This came as a surprise because, in addition to
having some physical reasons for not believing it, it was in contrast to
previous calculations I had done some time back on the same system (and
input files) with QE 4.3.2. The deviations with respect to QE version over
a 3x3x3 grid of q vectors in this system amounted to a maximal error of
13.5 cm^-1 for a particular q vector.

This previously mentioned system was fairly large, so I tried to find
simpler systems to run so that I could narrow down where the problem was
coming from. I found that many simple systems (like cubic diamond)
exhibited essentially zero error regardless of version. However, in
guessing that the problem could possibly be related to systems with
hexagonal symmetry, I chose to test the hexagonal diamond phase of Ge (4
atoms/cell) and found that over a 3x3x3 grid of q vectors, I got deviations
on the order of 95 cm^-1 for some q vectors. I actually do not think the
problem is limited to hexagonal symmetry systems however, as I've seen some
deviations in other orthorhombic systems (although they have been more
minor).

Using the hexagonal diamond system, I tested a wide variety of QE releases
and SVN versions. The problem occurs for the more recent releases of 5.0.2
and 5.0.3 (i.e., the patch doesn't fix the problem). The latest SVN version
is consistent with 5.0.1 and 5.0.0 as well as older versions tested (4.3.2
and 4.2.1). I'm not sure the exact SVN version where the problem first
occurred, but rev 9724 is the first commit which gives the "correct" phonon
frequencies.

Rev 9724 differs from 9723 as follows:

login1$ svn -r 9723:9724 diff

> ===
> --- PHonon/PH/sgam_ph.f90 (revision 9723)

>  raq = - raq
>  minus_q = eqvect (raq, aq, zero, accep)
>   endif


Anyway, hope these tests are useful. Unless I've made a mistake somewhere,
I think it suggests that it's extremely dangerous to do phonon calculations
with 5.0.2 or 5.0.3 and you should either stick to 5.0.1 or svn revision
9724 or later.

Dear Koushik,
the charge density is obtained after a sum over the occupied k-points
and bands, so you cannot print it for a single k-point.

On the other hand, you can plot the contribution from a specific point
"k" and band "n", which is the square modulus of the wavefunction
\psi_{k,n}.

The value of "kpoint" in  is the index of the k-point, as listed
in the output of pw.x. If you want to plot a specific point that is not
in the list you will have to do a nscf calculation first.

best regards

kpoint is the index of k-points as they appear in the output of pw.x

I am doing MD calculation in QuantumEspresso-5.0.1, and have a question now...

the pressure "explose"

entering subroutine stress ...

[Pw_forum] "not orthogonal operation" during vc-relax when optimizing graphene

2013-05-03 Thread Peng Tao
Dear all,

Recently, I just want to putting 'vc-relax' to optimize the graphene structure,
but it repots an error:
%%
 from checkallsym : error # 2
 not orthogonal operation
%%

And I set 'cell_dofree = xy' in the vc-relax run.

I know, it is no need to apply vc-relax to graphene, and only relax can aquire 
my result. But if I want to relax bi-layer and mutilayer graphene and my 
ultimate
goal is to get their phonon dispersion curves(so the symmetry should not be 
broken),
how could I do? Is there any convienient method to relax them?

Thanks a lot.

Yours,
Peng Tao

[Pw_forum] "not orthogonal operation" during vc-relax when optimizing graphene

2013-05-03 Thread mohnish pandey
Dear Peng,

The cell you might be using is 'hexagonal' and the 'vc-relax' that you are
doing has two degrees of freedom in x and y direction which are orthogonal
due the flag 'cell_dofree = xy' you set. Since the symmetry is breaking in
the second step due to relaxation in x and y direction it is changing the
number of k-points. That's why you are getting that error. A simple
work-around for this is you use a bit bigger cell with orthorhombic
symmetry (in which you have orthogonal 'a' and 'b' vectors). In
orthorhombic cell symmetry won't break due to 'cell_dofree = xy'.
