Re: [Pw_forum] Incomplete output in HSE calculation

2015-11-17 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
The code first performs a self-consistent calculation without the exact exchange potential. Next iterations are MUCH slower than the first one. If the code is still running, just wait; if not, it might have crashed due to insufficient memory or other reasons Paolo On Wed, Nov 18, 2015 at 7:18 AM,

Re: [Pw_forum] ZHEGV ERROR

2015-11-17 Thread Jure Varlec
In addition to what Giovanni wrote, I do not recommend using VESTA for generating data for further processing. It is meant to produce pretty pictures (which it does rather well), and that means it tends to include atoms from neighbouring images to make the unit cell look "complete". This causes ove

[Pw_forum] Incomplete output in HSE calculation

I am doing HSE calculation, and using following flags. But, the output reads: the Fermi energy is 7.8327 ev convergence has been achieved in 33 iterations But, it is not writing Total energy and other outputs. The input is as follows: input_dft='HSE' exx_fraction=0.25, screening

2015-11-17 Thread Giovanni Cantele
There is an evident problem with your input: the ATOMIC_POSITIONS card is wrong, because it corresponds to Mg-Mg distance of ~ 1 A and Mg-B distance of ~ 0.7 A that do not look reasonable to me. So either the positions are all wrong or the units are wrong. Maybe you intended crystal units? In th

Dear QE community, I encountered a strange problem with visualization of pw.x output using XCrysden. I was visualizing the final structure after geometry optimization using Xcrysden. When the coordinates of atoms shown in Xcrysden in the unit of crystal, they are same with those in pw.x output

[Pw_forum] Dielectric constant of ZnAl2O4:Cu

2015-11-17 Thread Winfred Mulwa
Dear all, I would wish to calculate the dielectric constant of ZnAl2O4:Cu. I have run the scf calculation which is the first part of optical properties. My question is, what should i include in the input file so that i can get the dielectric constant from -2 to 2 charges. Kind regards Mulwa Winfred
