[Pw_forum] about PWscf PP generation

2011-09-11 Thread Robin H
 I can't find the answer to my question in the manual,so I put my question
on the forum.I never wanted to make troubles.I think maybe someone has ever
been confused by this kind of problem,and if they have solved it,could
please to share the method with me.I 'm so appreciate it.It's much better to
discuss than to work alone in the office.

[Pw_forum] about PWscf PP generation

2011-09-11 Thread Emine Kucukbenli

Dear Robin,
It takes some trial and error to generate a good pseudopotential. the  
more complex your atom is, harder it may get. So why dont you try  
starting with something simple? It is really not easy to guess the  
best rcut values without carefully examining the atom.

If I may, i would suggest you to start with something simple, draw the  
atomic orbitals, study the shape of pseduo orbitals for each cut off  
you choose and change them systematically. Watch also the logarithmic  
derivatives for ghosts. if you are generating a paw one, also watch  
the behavior of partial wave expansion curves. Do this for a simple  
system, actually, do it for a system that you already know the working  
set of parameters, like the ones in pslibrary project that you can  
download from qe-forge..once you find a reasonable range for all the  
parameters you can start refining them for a better pseudo.
And once you have a better idea about how each parameter affects the  
pseudopotential in the simpler system, i think it gets a tad easier to  
move on to harder-to-generate pseudopotentials.
best,
emine kucukbenli, phd student, sissa, italy

nobody is. Did you read atomic_doc/pseudo-gen.tex?
it is incomplete but better than nothing

[Pw_forum] about PWscf PP generation

2011-09-07 Thread Robin H
thank you for your tips,I'm so careless to make such a stupid mistake.After
trying for many times I 'm encountered the only problem is how to choose a
perfect rc.When I set rc=1.9,in the pseudo_run there is a warning like this:
WARNING! Expected number of nodes:   1= 3-  1-  1, number of nodes
found:  0.
   Setting wfc to zero for this iteration.
   (This warning will only be printed once per wavefunction)
   Zero norm: self consistency problem; state:  5 (l=  1, j=0.0)
and the generated PP is not very well:
n l nl   e AE (Ry)e PS (Ry)De AE-PS
(Ry)
 1 0 5S   1( 2.00)   -2.85985   -3.283550.42370

this is my input file :

 &test
  configts(1)='5s2 5p6 6s2 5d1 6p0',
I 'm not good at PP generation.And maybe I choose an unproper rc,so I can't
get a good result for calculation.You're so kind and so experienced in
solving this kind of problem,hope for your advice.

Of course, since the element Xe already has 5s2 and 5p2~ you can change 
parameter "config" like: '[Xe] 5d1 6s1.5 6p0.5'
