[QE-users] Regarding band calculations using HSE hybrid functionals

2022-02-25 Thread Srihari Venugopala Rao
Dear all,
 Currently I am working on bismuth ferrite using PBE
exchange functionals which unfortunately predicts it to be a metal (It is a
semiconductor of bandgap of about 2.67 eV).
In view of this wrong prediction, I started using hybrid functionals, I was
slightly confused about using hybrid functionals for bandgap and DOS as it
cannot be used for nscf calculation after reading the QE input file
description and watching other videos on youtube. I wanted to request if
anybody can explain the workflow for finding the bandgap and DOS using
Hybrid functionals. Thanks in advance.

[QE-users] Fortran runtime error: Disk quota exceeded

2022-02-25 Thread Tarek Hammad

Dear QE team and users

I run an THERMO_PW code to obtain the elastic constants for a complex 
system (40 atoms). After long time of running, namely, near the end of 
calculations the code was terminated and I have got this message in 
slurm file:

Primary job  terminated normally, but 1 process returned
a non-zero exit code. Per user-direction, the job has been aborted.

--
mpirun detected that one or more processes exited with non-zero status, 
thus causing

the job to be terminated. The first process to do so was:

  Process name: [[60482,1],0]
  Exit code:    2

Please, I would not like to restart from the beginning?

I need your advise please.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Dr. Tarek Hammad.

[QE-users] Temperature effect

2022-02-25 Thread sally issa
Hello, 

I want to study the effect of temperature on the mechanical properties pure 
metal element and metallic alloy like elastic constant, energy formation of 
defects … 
I have been calculated it at the ground state at 0K.
Can anyone suggest me which expression of Q.E. need to do this calculation 
please?

Best regards, 
Sally
