[Wien] system error *.def files are not created

2010-03-23 Thread Dr Aruna Chatterjee
Dear Dr. Yasir Saeed & wien users,
Thank  you Dr Yasir Saeed for your kind reply. Yes *.def files are now created  
and I can proceed with initialisation now. But the oyher problem  i.e the 
warning :Because of common the alignment of objects are inconsistent with their 
type still persists. I do not know if this warning can pose problem in future. 
I cannot remove this warning. I am using mkl 9.1.021 and  ifort 9.1.036 
compiler both from intel. I have included the path to both mkl and ifort in the 
etc directory and have run ldconfig in root. Can anybody may give any 
suggestion.
Thanking in advance.

[Wien] Distortion in Band Structure

2010-03-23 Thread JUPHY SANJAY
Respected Prof. P. Blaha Sir,
First of all I am very grateful for your response.
Sir,I choose RKmax for LaAs is 7.0 and RMTs are 2.39 for both.
When I changed RKmax (on your suggestion) then I got correct band structure.
Thank you once again.

[Wien] [SPAM?] Re: [SPAM?] Help about Spin configration in FM/I/FM trilayers

2010-03-23 Thread Martin Pieper
Dear Bahram Abedi,

I am not sure which program you mean when you think "in determining the space 
group, rotates " the magnetization. Do you include Spin-Orbit coupling? As 
long as you do NOT include Spin-Orbit coupling in your calculations, the spin 
and space parts of the Hamiltonian are decoupled and  the orientation of the 
spin in the crystalografic system is free - and consequently I am not aware 
of any way to tell Wien2k in which direction the moments should point besides 
in case.inso, 

Regards, Martin

You need the coordinates of your atoms as well.

If you have a cif file (in the setting used by wien2k), then it is most 
convenient to use cif2struct to translate that into a valid structure file.

[Wien] effect of temperature on structure

2010-03-23 Thread shamik chakrabarti
Dear Peter Blaha Sir and wien2k users,

I have a question
regarding the effect on structure due to temperature. There is a option in
 min_lapw in wien2k (*user guide section 8.15.3* , *page 138*) , we can
create the case.inM file in such a way to get temperature dependent
molecular dynamics by using NOSE thermostat. I do not know much about that.
But is that a way to create some temperature dependent effect on the
structure?looking forward to your answer very eagerly.

With best regards,

Shamik Chakrabarti

[Wien] [Wien2k Users] Lattice Stability usingStructure Optimization

2010-03-23 Thread Ghosh SUDDHASATTWA
Thanks Stefaan for the reply. 
I guess I am better off by considering only Option 2 for hcp cases. I am
feeling a bit nervous to choose other options in the optimization procedure.

Yes, it is quite true that there are I in fact two variables; volume and
c/a. 
I got a pretty good variation in energy and c/a. 
But I know it is not a complete study. 
Probably we have to vary volume and c/a simultaneously (2D Optimize) so that
we get all possibilities.

Now read Martins mail again, and consider what he writes about enlarging 
the lattice constants (i.e. increasing the volume of the cell). Then, 
ponder what it means that you have 2 degrees of freedom here: a and c, 
or alternatively, volume and c/a.

2010-03-23 Thread Ghosh SUDDHASATTWA
Dear Martin, 
Probably I am responding to your mail after a long time. And moreover, you
are absolutely correct. 
If Pu is imagined to be in the Zr atomic positions, it is very natural that
the occupation of Pu would naturally increase the c/a ratio  and there is no
meaning to do a structure optimization for cases like -2 % or -5 % change in
c/a ratio. The equilibrium c/a would be somewhere around +12-15 % change
(gross)  and this is what is expected from physics. 
That is what I get from Wien2k

Dear Ghosh Suddhasattwa,

being a beginner with Wien2k myself and not having read your exchange with

Did you adapt (enlargen) the lattice constant when you put in Pu instead of 
Zr? I would expect that Pu needs a lot more space than Zr and, therefore,
you 
might simply be too far away from any reasonable lattice constant and far
out 
of the trial range of the optimization procedure...

[Wien] .struct files

2010-03-23 Thread Josh Abeling
I have used init_lapw using the example case.struct files and have no problems 
there. When it comes to making my own file I was wondering what are the initial 
values I would need to run the nn, symmetry and sgroup programs? From chapter 4 
of the user's guide it seems all you would need are the title, lattice type, 
format mode,and lattice constants and angles. When I try to run x nn on a 
.struct file with just these is does not complete, and if I fill in the first 
line of the atomic-index the x nn program will complete but without returning 
any values and the symmetry and sgroup programs will not run. I am working with 
A2B2O7 type transition-metal pyrochlore oxides.

Assuming that you have a valid case.struct, init_lapw works fine and
is what many people use instead. The web interface is more convenient
for a few things. So long as you are moderately experienced with
Wien2k, it should work fine.
