Dear Manhong, As far I know the incosistency of treating charged defects within PAW formalism discussed in PHYSICAL REVIEW B 89, 045116 (2014) has not been resolved in any pseudopotential code. I wish I can devote more time to study this paper more carefully. Regarding the second paper,

Dear all, I would like to get the IR and Raman spectra of silicon using Quantum Espresso. So far I have realized that the prerequisites for such a purpose is to do scf calculation, phonon calculation, and diagonalization. However, I am not sure if I have followed the procedure properly. I

Dear all, I want to calculate total energy and do some structure optimization for charged defects in semiconductors. Is QE able to do such computations? A paper by Dr. Fabien Bruneval et al points out that in QE's paw code, the averaged smooth electrostatic potential V_H [~(n_Zc)] =sum_a
