Re: [Wien] Spin-orbit coupling effect on band gap energy with LDA and GGA-PBE

2024-05-18 Thread Peter Blaha

I did not add RLOs at all.

For sure not for light elements like O and F.
This option is in particular for  semicore p states of heavy elements, 
but maybe for Bi-p it is ok.


In any case, if case.inso, in1, in2, in0 are identical for mbj-lda and 
mbj-pbe, the results must be identical.

Thank you for your valuable answer.
Yes, Emax is the same for mbj_lda_so and mbj_pbe_so.

I checked your results and I am doing something wrong with the SO 
calculation.


I've shared below the operation file for SO calculation. I would 
appreciate it if you can tell me where I am doing wrong.

In spinpolarized case SO may reduce symmetry.

The program symmetso detects the proper symmetry and creates new struct and
input files. (Note, equivalent atoms could become inequivalent in some 
cases).


Do you have a spinpolarized case (and want to run symmetso) ? (y/N)N

Re: [Wien] Spin-orbit coupling effect on band gap energy with LDA and GGA-PBE

2024-05-16 Thread Peter Blaha

As I said before:
The first question is:  why is LDA+mBJ and PBE#mBJ not identical ??
What is :DIS of all your calculations ?
My guess is that they are not converged (just 40 default iterations, 
just default convergence ?)


We do not know enough about your compound (except that it contains Bi), 
but this does not happen in 99.9 % of all cases.


The behavior with SO is a second step, but unless the first one is 
solved, I would not even discuss the SO behavior.
Also your comment about EMAX=6 (which is a very small increase for a 
convergence test) indicates to me, that the previous calculations have 
not been converged.

Dear Dr. Blaha,

1. Case: I get 4.85 eV for LDA and then MBJ without SO (4.77 eV with SO)

2. Case: I get 4.74 eV for PBE and then MBJ without SO (4.79 eV with SO)

In the 1. case band gap decreases with SO, but in the 2. case band gap 
increases.


I use Emax=5 eV for both calculations.

As far as I know, for SO calculation Emax should be chosen carefully. I 
did another calculation with Emax = 6eV.


This time, in both cases, the band gap increases with SO.

In literature, band gap decrease is expected with SO, but I get band gap 
increase in my calculations.


My question is  if there is something else should I check. Or how one 
can explain the band gap increase?

Re: [Wien] Spin-orbit coupling effect on band gap energy with LDA and GGA-PBE

No.

These 2 calculations should be exactly the same.

What matters is only:    XC_MBJ

Everything in parenthesis is only a comment to give you a few common 
options.

You are always using   mBJ  (for VX), but how do you mix in LDA or
PBE ?

By default we use LDA for VC, (and anything for EX and EC, since
this is
not important).

Usually, the choice of VC has only a small effect (as compared to VX).

Dear Wien2K users,
I am running a calculation for a Bi-containing compound with a 
tetragonal structure type. I used LDA with mBJ, and then, due to the 
heavy Bi atom, I did the SOC calculation. The calculated band gap 
energy with SOC is smaller than without SOC. I checked the literature, 
and the band gap decrease is common for SOC calculation. However, if I 
use PBE-GGA with mBJ (instead of LDA with mBJ), the band gap energy 
with SOC is greater than without SOC, which is contrary to the 
literature.


 Is it possible that I get a band gap decrease with LDA while I get a 
band gap increase with PBE-GGA when the SOC effect is taken into 
consideration?


Any response will be appreciated.

[Wien] Spin-orbit coupling effect on band gap energy with LDA and GGA-PBE

2024-05-10 Thread Yakup Boran
Dear Wien2K users,
I am running a calculation for a Bi-containing compound with a tetragonal
structure type. I used LDA with mBJ, and then, due to the heavy Bi atom, I
did the SOC calculation. The calculated band gap energy with SOC is smaller
than without SOC. I checked the literature, and the band gap decrease is
common for SOC calculation. However, if I use PBE-GGA with mBJ (instead of
LDA with mBJ), the band gap energy with SOC is greater than without SOC,
which is contrary to the literature.

 Is it possible that I get a band gap decrease with LDA while I get a band
gap increase with PBE-GGA when the SOC effect is taken into consideration?

Any response will be appreciated. 

Best Regards

Yakup Bran
