[Wien] lapw7

2013-01-14 Thread Gavin Abo
The Wien2k userguide for case.in7(c) has "format(A3,1X,A3,1X,A5)" for 
the "switch iunit whpsi" line.

If you have

ABS ANG LARGE

The first A3 reads ABS (three places). The second format input 1X reads 
the one blank space (one place) between ABS and ANG.

For

RE  ANG LARGE

The A3 needs to read RE (two places) plus a space (one place) 
[http://zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/pipermail/wien/2008-September/011475.html].

So check and make sure that there are exactly two blank spaces between 
RE and ANG.

[Wien] need help

2013-01-14 Thread idris.09 idris
Dear user of wien2k i need help as i am not able to define a structure file
for full heusler alloy X2YZ (space group 225) type structure. where x is at
(000) and (1/2,1/2,1/2, ). Y atoms at (1/4,1/4,1/4) and Z atoms occupy
(3/4,3/4,3/4) positions. when i define these positions and click to view
structure it displays wrong structure. however it define the same structure
for space group 216. but i need the structure file with space group 225.

[Wien] need help

2013-01-14 Thread Gavin Abo
Someone, please correct me if I'm wrong.

For example, let full heusler Co2MnAl with 225 spacegroup be:

a = b = c = 5.694 angstrom
alpha = beta = gamma = 90 deg
Co (0,0,0) and (0.5,0.5,0.5)
Mn (0.25,0.25,0.25)
Al (0.75,0.75,0.75)

In StructGen, spacegroup 225 is selected.  Then, the following is used:

a = b = c = 5.694 angstrom
alpha = beta = gamma = 90 deg
Co 1 (0,0,0)
Co 2 (0.5,0.5,0.5)
Mn (0.25,0.25,0.25)

The struct file is saved.

StructGen uses inequivalent positions.  The positions Mn 
(0.25,0.25,0.25) and Al (0.75,0.75,0.75) are equivalent in spacegroup 
225, so we cannot place Al (0.75,0.75,0.75) in spacegroup 225.  
StructGen is then used to edit the saved struct file.  Spacegroup F is 
selected, Save Structure, continue editing, and position 
(0.75,0.75,0.75) is "split".  The Z value is deleted and renamed from Mn 
to Al for position (0.75,0.75,0.75).  The structure file is saved.  In 
xcrysden, the spacegroup 225 structure with Mn in all 8c 
(0.25,0.25,0.25) sites looks the same as the spacegroup F structure 
except half the 8c sites are now occupied by Mn at (0.25,0.25,0.25) and 
the other by half by Al atoms at (0.75,0.75,0.75).

I have a general question here that goes beyond this topic.  If sgroup 
reduces the cell, should we stay with the spacegroup (F in this case) or 
use the reduced cell?  I think one should stay with spacegroup F, 
because the calculation from the reduced cell would be different.  If 
haven't got around to doing some calculations to test this.  If the 
reduced cell gives the same results, this would likely be preferred as 
the simulation would likely be faster using symmetry.  Any comment on 
this would be appreciated.

This particular case doesn't seem to be a good example, because the cell 
is not reduced by sgroup finding spacegroup 216 that looks equivalent to 
the spacegroup F structure.  I'm still learning, so hope that makes sense.

[Wien] CORE electrons leak out of MT-sphere !!!!

2013-01-14 Thread Laurence Marks
Your structure is wrong. RMTs of 1.1 for Au and La are unphysically small,
they should be at least 2.0. And, before you ask, how it is wrong I do not
know

[Wien] Electron density at ruthenium nucleus

2013-01-14 Thread Peter Blaha
Supercell will NEVER reduce the unit cell parameters.

Probably you did it already in your first Au calculations !

Did you optimize the volume ?? After optimize.job the struct file
contains the lattice parameters from your "last" calculation!

PS: I don_t know what you want to simulate, but a 8-atom cell is way too 
small to simulate an "impurity".
