[QE-users] Error in Raman spectroscopy calculation

2020-10-29 Thread Soumyadeep
Dear All, I am getting following error during Raman spectroscopy calculation in QE-6.4.1, forrtl: severe (24): end-of-file during read, unit 40, file /home2/soumya/qe-6.3/TEST/122/Ba22_prim/raman/RAMAN/./122.a2Fsave Error occurs when I use electron_phonon = 'interpolated' but

i have perturbed the molecule with the 3 surface atoms. Also i tried 9 surface atoms connected to it (currently running), however i got the same negative frequencies. Does the frequencies, shown below, have the same order of perturbed atoms ? i.e. the (  1 -  1) correspond to the first atom,

Hi, I got a segmentation fault when I tried to parallelize over k-points using localization_thr > 0 when they are specified in crystal. Works fine with automatic. Is this the expected behavior? Here is an input file for reproducing. I tried -nk 2 in both cases, -nk 4 gives an error even with

Dear Iurii In principle you are right, but if you try to compute, e.g., formation heats or formation energy of defects by using different U values (I did it long time ago in the case of TiO2 related studies for metallic Ti, for TiO2, for Ti2O3) you fall sometimes very far from experimental

Dear Yogesh, I assume you are trying to use PSLibrary ultrasoft PPs. The one you've listed is spdn, meaning no 4f in valence. PSLibrary's lanthanides with 4f (spdfn) require crazy high plane wave cutoffs. As long as you are using +U anyway, I recommend Topsakal's PAWs.

Dear all, I read many times in papers that I should not compare total energies of DFT+U calculations with different U values. What should I do in case of complex hull calculations of a phase diagram? With QE it is now possible to calculate the U values for each composition by the hp.x code.

Thank you very much for this valuable information. I wanted to know how do I know in what orbital how much U parameter I should provide. In QE, there's only one option of Hubbard_U and not any orbital specific data. But in other programs like SIESTA, I had to put U and J value for each orbital,

Dear Omer, Very well, your simulation completes successfully. Negative (ie. imaginary) eigenvalues indicate for all-atom perturbations that your system is not in a local minimum conformation. In such an overlimited situation, however, these numbers are probably meaningless. To see what is behind,

Hi Sitangshu, Indeed the syntax is incorrect as Paolo said. You missed a “-L” in the LIBS It should be: ./configure CC=pgcc F77=pgf90 FC=pgf90 F90=pgf90 MPIF90=mpif90 --with-cuda=/usr/local/cuda/bin --with-cuda-runtime=9.2 --with-cuda-cc=70 --enable-openmp LIBS=-L/usr/local/cuda/lib64/stubs/
