Re: [Wien] triclinic optimization

2014-04-14 Thread Lawal Mohammed
Dear Peter Blaha Sir,

Thank you for your reply.
Actually as you have mentioned that

    for a triclinic case a 6D search by E-tot only is hardly possible. 
somewhere here 
http://www.mail-archive.com/wien%40zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg01914.html

I thought there is a way around it. 

With kind regards

 Any hint in this regard is appreciated.

Dear Wien2k user

I hope You are fine

I want to calculate the Band-structure of Monolayer  silicene in presence
of
Spin orbit coupling, But since silicene is not spin polarized material, I
want to know how
I should run this. You do favour If You give me any detailed guidance.

The approach is similar to a regular BS plot, but please do not forget:
1) run 'x lapwso' after lapw1
2) activate '-so' when you call spaghetti

Hi,

The procedures to apply SOC for spin-polarized and spin-unpolarized
systems are similar:

initso_lapw (initialization)
run(sp)_lapw -so ... (run the calculation)

Now, I understand that your question was about band-structure and not
SCF calculation.

Re: [Wien] Spin-Orbit

2014-04-14 Thread Oleg Rubel
Dear Riemann,

if you have not done SCF + SO calculation, then follow Tran's advice. In
addition, please read 4.5.5 of the user guide. (The mailing list is not
intended to replace UG.)

I assume that you can do a BS plot without SO. With SO, the main steps
include:
* get case.klist_band (e.g., from XCRYSDEN)
* run 'x laps1'
* run 'x lapwso'
* go to w2web  Tasks  Bandstructure
* proceed as usual, but activate '-so'

I hope this will help
Oleg

Re: [Wien] Spin-Orbit

2014-04-14 Thread Gavin Abo

If it helps, I have summarized the steps (see below).

Assuming the user already did in w2web:

initialize calc.
run SCF
Bandstructure (Optional: Do if you want to later compare non-SO and SO 
bandstructure)


Switch to a terminal, while in the case directory, backup this completed 
non-spin polarized calculation with


1) save_lapw -d withoutSO

Note: This can also be done in w2web.

Initialize SO calculation in terminal with:

2) initso_lapw
- Do you have a spinpolarized case (and want to run symmetso) ? N

Note: initso_lapw of w2web is currently not as beginner friendly as it 
is in a terminal


Switch back to w2web and run SCF + SO:

3) run SCF as usual, but with spinorbit box checked

4) Click Bandstructure in w2web and proceed as usual, but check all 
-so boxes


I want to calculate the Band-structure of Monolayer  silicene in 
presence of
Spin orbit coupling, But since silicene is not spin polarized 
material, I want to know how

I should run this.
