[QE-users] Guidance Required for modelling CaCO3

Dear QE users, I am trying to model the Calcite structure for adsorption study in quantum espresso. I am getting the following error: At line 813 of file xmltools.f90 Fortran runtime error: End of file I have used the following input file: calculation = 'scf' etot_conv_thr =

Thank you, Paolo, for clarifying it. So, is it right to say that the wave functions are not scalar anymore when we use non-collinear calculations, as they have two components for up and down spin? Best wishes, Alireza Shabani Postdoc researcher, Denmark Technical University Copenhagen, Denmark

Hi In fact I faced the same type of problem when modelling spin-crossover molecules. In such molecular systems the standard DFT fails to describe the energy balance between Low Spin (LS) and High Spin (HS) state. The LS being strongly favoured. Adding U is a way to circumvent this issue.

Plane-wave coefficients are complex: the real part is followed by imaginary part. The first 2*npw coefficients are for the "up" components of the spinor; the following 2*npw are for the "down" component Paolo -- Paolo Giannozzi, DMIF, Univ. Udine, Italy *** AVAILABLE POST-DOC POSITION: ***

Dear Giovanni, Thank you for your explanation. Yes, I think for the number of KS states, you are right, as the spin-orbit coupled states are twice the non-spin-orbit coupled states. But I am going to focus on just one of these states and calculate the wave function using the information in the
