[Wien] Initialization issue with core leak out of sphere And RMT Sums Greater than NN-DIST
Dear all, I have been facing a few compounds that I am unable to do the initialization (using w2web) for the calculation. The problem is: I was facing both core leak out of sphere, and RMT Sums Greater than NN-DIST at the same time. A recent example: I am trying to do an calculation initialization on the LuFe2O4 (R-3m group) crystal (cell parameters are from the Pearson's Crystal Data sheet 382676, a=b=0.3435nm, c=2.525nm, Alpha=Beta=90 degree, Theta=120 degree. Atomic positions: O1: 0 0 0.1295 Fe: 0 0 0.2141 O2: 0 0 0.2914 Lu: 0 0 0 ). Using the WIEN default RMT values and the default ENERGY to separate core and valence states (-6) , I was facing core electrons leak out of MT-sphere message for all four atoms. So I go back to the x start step and change the separation energy to the lowest possible value (-10 in this case) - if going any lower than -10, I will be seeing the error message after running x start, like these: forrtl: severe (24): end-of-file during read, unit -4, file stdin error: command /home/wen/WIEN2K11/wien2k11install/lstart lstart.def failed So, the natural step I took next is to increase the RMT values for the atoms correspondingly (according to each atom's core leak value). Then I am facing an another problem: If I am to increase the RMT values too large, then in the x nn step I will be seeing errors like ERROR !!! RMT( 1)=0.53000 AND RMT( 1)=0.53000 SUMS TO 1.06000 GT NNN-DIST= 0.84061 But if the RMT value is not increased enough then the core leaking message will still be there. So how would I solve such problems? I have been facing these for a few compounds - for example, the other compound I tried was BiAlO3 which would lead me to the same bottle-neck problem. Is there an automatic approaching way that I can take to get rid of both error message at the same time? For cases like these, if there is no practical solution to the initialization would that means the unit cell parameters were out of touch (reality)? Thank you for reading. I have been searching the archive for a solution but no luck.

Do the following 1. Import the cif into struct file by using cif2struct 2. use w2web to enter the atomic positions (do not enter Z) Check R0 in the struct file after initialization. Moreover, see the UG for entering data for rhombohedral systems. Convert the R-3m:r to R-3m:h using Bilbao server (alternative settings program) and use the atomic positions accordingly Cheers -Original Message- From: wien-boun...@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at [mailto:wien-bounces at zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at] On Behalf Of Qiwen YAO Sent: Monday, December 05, 2011 3:55 PM To: A Mailing list for WIEN2k users Subject: [Wien] Initialization issue with core leak out of sphere And RMT Sums Greater than NN-DIST Dear all, I have been facing a few compounds that I am unable to do the initialization (using w2web) for the calculation.

Dear Ghosh, Peter and Sharat , Thank for your responds, particularly Ghosh's detailed respond allows me to go further. Now, I put the lufe2o4.cif file in the directory and deleted the old struct file in the working directory, went to the StructGen in w2web, it indeed sees a file lufe2o4.cif there, so I highlighted the cif file (by clicking on the round circle next to the file name - the black dot stays there afterward - means that the file has been selected. I then clicked on Use selected CIF/TXT file - but nothing happened- except that the page was sort of refreshed and the cif file has been dis-selected, so I repeated the operation again - by selected the file, and click on the button Use selected CIF/TXT file - and the same thing happened - I was not directed to a new (supposedly structural ) page. Does this mean that my w2web isn't installed properly or, is there anything I didn't do correctly? Or is there something wrong with the cif file?

Now, I put the lufe2o4.cif file in the directory and deleted the old struct file in the working directory, went to the StructGen in w2web, it indeed sees a file lufe2o4.cif there, so I highlighted the cif file (by clicking on the round circle next to the file name - the black dot stays there afterward - means that the file has been selected. I then clicked on Use selected CIF/TXT file - but nothing happened- except that the page was sort of refreshed and the cif file has been dis-selected, so I repeated the operation again - by selected the file, and click on the button Use selected CIF/TXT file - and the same thing happened - I was not directed to a new (supposedly structural ) page. Does this mean that my w2web isn't installed properly or, is there anything I didn't do correctly? Or is there something wrong with the cif file? Thank you, Wen Here below is the cif file - in case you want to look at it: # ### # ## # # # Fe-Lu-O # LuFe2O4 # 1405830 # # # ### # ## # # # Pearson's Crystal Data # # Crystal Structure Database for Inorganic Compounds (on CD-ROM) # # Release 2010/11 # # Editors: Pierre Villars and Karin Cenzual # # # # Copyright (c) ASM International Material Phases Data System (MPDS), # # Switzerland National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Japan, 2010 # # (Data generated pre-2002: Copyright (c) ASM International MPDS NIMS; # # post-2001: Copyright (c) ASM International MPDS) # # All rights reserved.
