[Pw_forum] What is the function of "drho_e" file?

2013-05-31 Thread xirainbow
Dear all:

   When I do ph.x calculation, there are "drho_e1, drho_e2,
drho_e3" files in the running directory.
   The name of "drho_e" files do not change with prefix of the
phonon.input file.

   Are "drho_e1, drho_e2, drho_e3" files  are used by ph.x or
by dynmat.x or other pp?

   Can I run many ph.x in the same directory at the same time  ?

   Thank you in advance :)

[Pw_forum] reusing wfc/charge density for nscf calculation with different total charge

2013-05-31 Thread Alexey Akimov
Dear Paolo,

First of all, thank you for your reply - i though that my message haven't got 
to the forum.  Yes, you are right - if i set the same tot_charge for nscf 
calculation as that for scf - everything works fine. But the idea is to use 
different charges for nscf (+0.25) and scf (0.0) calculations, and at the same 
time use the same wavefunction (obtained from the scf calculation). So when i 
try to do that, i get the errors below. I think this is because one is not 
supposed to do this kind of trick, normally. So would it be possible to do this 
without digging much into the code and rather using more standard options?

CRASH:
 %%
  %%
 task # 0
 from potinit : error # 1
 starting and expected charges differ
 %%


portion of the nscf output (i run on several CPUs):

 The potential is recalculated from file :
 ./x.save/charge-density.dat


 %%

 %%
 Error in routine potinit (1):
 starting and expected charges differ
 Error in routine potinit (1):
 starting and expected charges differ
 %%

 stopping ...

 %%
 Error in routine potinit (1):

Below are the relevant portions of the scf and nscf input files:

  pseudo_dir = 
  outdir = './',
  prefix = 'x',
/

&SYSTEM

  nat = 6,
  ntyp = 1,
  nbnd = 50,
  tot_charge = 0.25,
  occupations = 'smearing',
  starting_magnetization(1) = 0.0,
  smearing = 'gaussian',
  degauss = 0.005,
  ecutwfc = 40,
  ecutrho = 400,
  nspin = 2,
  nosym = .true.,
/

I am not sure but if you set a charge (tot_charge) for the nscf as well,
the calculation should succeed. Note that nothing changes in the nscf
if you set a nonzero charge: only occupancies should change, not
eigenvalues, since these depend only upon the potential

> PP's.

Yes! I would not be really sure of my results without reoptimizing the system 
geometry, at least (maybe you can avoid vc-relax; but only you can 
decide on such issue...). Then remember to indicate in the final pw calculation 
the values

nr1=2*a, nr2=2*b, nr3=2*c,

where a, b and c are found in your "standard" pw calculation output

 Dense  grid:   191162 G-vectors FFT dimensions: (  96,  96,  96)

[Pw_forum] A few questions about MD simulations

2013-05-31 Thread Robert Hembree
Dear all ,

  I have recently moved to needing to do MD simulations using pwscf. There
are a number of things that are unclear to me which simple searches have not
answered. 

First: In the temp directory at the conclusion of the simulation I find
three output files. It is unclear to me what information is stored in them.
What information is stored in title.md and title.msd.dat?

 

Second: For a calculation I need to do I need to have access to the plane
wave coefficients at each time step? I noticed that upon completion of the
simulation that the wavefunction files seem to have disappeared. Is there an
easy way to access this information? Or would it require large changes to
the code base?

Third: In the source files where does the MD simulation start? For example,
an scf cycle is handled in the file electrons.f90. 

 

Fourth: This isn't about an MD simulation exactly, but more of a question of
how the program works. When reading the input files is the correct way to
access the planewave expansion coefficients through the 
USE wavefunctions_module, ONLY : psic
if so what do the individual indicies indicate?

 

Thank you.

[Pw_forum] bader analysis

2013-05-31 Thread Giuseppe Mattioli

Dear Sakhrawi Taoufek (and Ari, Giovanni, Axel)
I've done some test with the Bader post processing tool few months ago. I have 
found/can suggest:

1) It works well with PAW PPs only.

2) After reaching "normal" convergence in the pw.x (vc-relax, relax, scf) 
calculation, a new scf calculation should be done by using a denser fft grid 
than the one reported in the pw.x output; I do not now if nscf are implemented 
in this case. The convergence of Bader charges should be checked 
against the denser grid, but a factor 2 seems to be always sufficient to ensure 
convergence.

3) As pointed out by Ari, the pp.x calculations must be done by using plot_num= 
17, that is, the all-electron reconstructed charge density.

4) Atoms on the cell boundaries seem to lead to severe instabilities of the 
Bader charge estimates, but I did not perform in-depth tests in this case.

[Pw_forum] "Raman activities" do not converge

2013-05-31 Thread xirainbow
Dear Lorenzo Paulatto:
  Thank you very much for your suggestion:)

 The "FFT vs Symmetry" condition really happens.
  However, it has no relation with "Ramman activity". See
the following table.

Using "C.pw-mt_fhi.UPF" :
ecutwfc(Ry)  Freq(cm-1)  Raman activity  Sym. Ops.
 65 1330.65  68.9754   24
1001330.23  68.9674   24
1101330.50  3066.0811   48
1201330.48  15.1570   48
1301330.47  68.9545   48
1401330.48  68.9536   48
1501330.48  68.9541   48

  I follow your suggestion and do the calculation.   When
I finish it , I will put it here:)
  There is a parameter tr2_ph in phonon.input.   Could
you please tell me the relation between "ethr" and  "tr2_ph"?

Thank you again:)

[Pw_forum] bader analysis

2013-05-31 Thread Giovanni La Penna

Dear Dr Sakhrawi Taoufek,

  I used the Bader's analysis you mentioned on
cube files generated with PP:

http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00214-011-0955-3

There is a problem in the core contribution
to charge density that MUST be included. I made
this manually (see article above for some details).
Maybe, PP improvements nowadays allow this
operation more easily (and more accurately).

HTH,
   Giovanni

[Pw_forum] phonon calculation with no convergence

2013-05-31 Thread moonf...@mail.sdu.edu.cn
Dear all, 
I am doing phonon calculation.
and it ends  with error "No convergence has been achieved "
"  End of self-consistent calculation
 No convergence has been achieved 
 "

How can I solve it? Any suggestion will be apprecieted.

mind you, that bader analysis results from pseudopotential
calculations have to be treated with great care, since the missing
core electrons punch "holes" in the density that are not present in
all-electron calculations.

Dear Sakhraoui Taoufik,

   I have used this program to analyse Gaussian CUBE files; the code 
recognises this format automatically.

Dear all, 

i want to study charge transfer in interface metal/oxide with bader analysis, i 
looked in the archive of the forum,?found this link 

http://theory.cm.utexas.edu/vtsttools/bader/
but corresponds to vasp code.
how can i proceed after generating a cube with pp.x??

[Pw_forum] phonon calculation with no convergence

 It is useful to reduce the "alpha_mix(1)" value. Default value is 0.7. You
can use 0.1. It will converge...
