[QE-users] Regarding the error in routine card_atomic_species

2021-09-24 Thread Zahra Mosleh
Hi,everyone. I want to perform Scf calculation using quantum espresso. In the Input describtion of PW , naming an atom as X_* is allowed and max total length cannot exceed 3 characters (Card: ATOMIC_SPECIES). But , as I test, if X has three letters (for example Ni1), an error will occure as f

[QE-users] parallel nd phonon diagonalization?

2021-09-24 Thread Ronald Cohen
It is not obvious to me if -nd parallelization works with dfpt in ph.x. Is ELPA used? What is the best parallelization strategy for effective charges in large systems? phonons? Thanks for any advice. Sincerely, Ron --- Ronald Cohen Extreme Materials Initiative Carnegie Institution for Science

I think -nd is used only for the initial calculation of the needed Kohn-Sham \psi_{k+q} states. There is little dense-matrix linear algebra in the phonon code. Paolo On Fri, Sep 24, 2021 at 8:26 PM Ronald Cohen wrote: > It is not obvious to me if -nd parallelization works with dfpt in ph.x. Is

[QE-users] question about wave functions phonon code

2021-09-24 Thread Jacopo Simoni via users
Dear all, I have a question related to the wave functions in the phonon code. I think the wave function at the finite q vector (xq variable) \Psi_n(k+q) is contained in the evq variable. This wave function appears different from the wave function at an equivalent q point, for instance if I look at

[QE-users] Errors in vc-relax calculations for a supercell

2021-09-24 Thread Shaona Bose
Dear QE Users, I have doped a 3X2X3 supercell of the compound CsPbI3 with one Cu atom. My input file looks like this: &CONTROL calculation = 'vc-relax' etot_conv_thr = 9.00d-04 forc_conv_thr = 1.00d-04 outdir = './outdir' prefix = 'basic' pseudo_dir = './' nstep
