Dear Mehmet and Prof. Andrei Postnikov, As I had mentioned earlier I had changed the vibra.h file to make maxx=10; maxy=10 and maxz=10. But now when I obtain the dispersion curve it is completely messed up. I believe that something else needs to be modified in the Vibra utility in order to accomod

Dear Mehmet, It would be really nice of you to share that information. I'm running my code on my personal computer and hence its taking long. (This is just a test problem for me right now.). Also in the Vibra utility I had to modify the vibra.h file in order to allow me to input more supercells i.e

Mehmet, Please do share the knowledge. It is alwayfs useful, especislly because the calculation of phonons is always of interest. I for one would be very much interested in knowing how to use Dario's code in conjunction with Siesta. Cheers, Marcos On Wed, Jul 28, 2010 at 1:43 PM, Mehmet Topsaka

Thank you Prof. Postnikov and Mehmet for your quick responses. Here are a few observations. After Mehmets comment on increasing the Mesh cut-off I set it to 800 Ry I still observed negative part but the magnitude has reduced. Sorry I didn't know one had to go to such high cut-offs to observe a cha

Dear Juzar, Your problem is related with ZA branch (so-called out-of-plane acoustical branch) which occur around the gamma-point as an artifact of insufficient mesh size that we encountered in some of our calculations. We usually increase the mesh points along the z-axis so that the negative frequ

Hi, Thank you Prof. Postnikov and Mehmet for your quick replies. I do get 3 acoustic modes and 3 optical modes as I should since I just have a 2 point basis. The problem is that one of the acoustic mode starts from zero and goes negative immediately (Graph attached). I have tried increasing the me

Dear Jusar, The equilibrium lattice and positions that i sent to you was obtained by LDA. You should do some lattice-relaxation if you want to use GGA. Also you should pay attention to the significant figures. For example you should use 0.333 instead of 0.333. MeshCutoff is also important.

Dear Mehmet, I used your input values but I still get a negative part in the curve. I tried re doing the calculation with LDA pseudo. For LDA there is no negative part whereas GGA (PBE) gives me negative part. Could someone comment on why this should happen for different pseudos. (I dont think ther

Hello Everyone, I'm trying to calculate the phonon dispersion relation of graphene sheet. In this calculation I get negative frequencies. Please could someone guide me where I'm going wrong? These are my input files: 1) C2.fdf SystemName graphene SystemLabel C2 NumberOfAtoms
