[QE-users] Information regarding a2f calculation using tetrahedra method

2018-09-19 Thread Anindya Bose
Dear Experts, I am looking for a tutorial by which I can calculate a2f(eliashberg function,el-ph interaction) using quantum espresso.I am using qe 6.2.1 version.How can I do this?Can anyone suggest me the steps of obtaining a2f or any tutorial. Thanks and regards, Anindya Bose, Research

Re: [QE-users] hybrid HSE much more stable convergence with PAW than NC

2018-09-19 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
This is quite surprising: there has been much more development work on hybrid functionals with NC PP than with PAW. If you have simple cases of NC PP calculatons failing for no apparent good reason, please report them (preferrably on gitlab.com) Paolo On Mon, Sep 17, 2018 at 12:03 AM, Christoph

Re: [QE-users] QE 6.2 "data-file-schema.xml" conversion

2018-09-19 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
Why do you need files in the old format? Apart from some exotic cases, everything works with the new format. Anyway: no, there is nothing available. One might create a converter by combining the pieces of code that read the new format and those that write the old one, but it is not completely

Re: [QE-users] Addition of an electron.

2018-09-19 Thread Paolo Giannozzi
I guess this subject deserves an item in the "Frequently Asked Question" list. Short answer: no, there is no (simple) way to add an electron to a given atom. For a not-so-simple way, see this: https://www.mail-archive.com/users@lists.quantum-espresso.org/msg26472.html Paolo On Tue, Sep 18, 2018

Re: [QE-users] Wrong 1pi orbitals from QE calculations

2018-09-19 Thread Lorenzo Paulatto
Are you sure what you get is wrong? The pi orbital has to be a bit asymmetric, because C and O are different, it could just be that a better choice of the isovalues to plot would give you a picture as you expect it. Also, your choice of atomic positions, x0, e1, e2 is very convoluted but

Hi Mahmood, There is a package implemented for calculating Z2 invariant. As far as I understand it works only for centrosymmetric systems. http://z2pack.ethz.ch/doc/2.0/example_espresso.html On 08.09.2018 11:10, Asad Mahmood wrote: Hi, I am working with some 2D material and putting

Your run requires something like 36 Gb RAM. Are you sure you have enough memory? Paolo On Tue, Sep 18, 2018 at 11:00 PM, Mirwaiz Rahaman wrote: > Hi, > I am trying to calculate scf of InAs monolayer slab but getting the > following error > " Self-consistent Calculation > > iteration #
