[Pw_forum] the symmetry problem in calculating phonon frequency of wurtzite AlN

2016-04-12 Thread wz
Dear all,


I am trying to calculate the phonon frequency of wurtzite AlN in gamma point?? 
i try to use the input files as PHonon/examples/example01/ in Quantum Espresso. 
The symmetry of wurtzite AlN is C6v, but in the output of my calculation, the 
symmetry is C3v so that the phonon frequency get by my work do not correspond 
with that get by reference.  
I want to know that if there is a way in quantum espresso to specify the 
symmetry? or some other method to get the right symmetry in phonon calculation?
