Re: [QE-users] pw.x - choosing starting_magnetization value for specific expected total magnetization

2024-02-23 Thread Abdul Muhaymin via users
Thanks Guido. I understand this starting_magnetization switch now. I wasn't using DFT+U since I first wanted to see what happens without any U correction and planned to use U correction later. But this is a good suggestion to set a near 0 U value to have the occupation matrix in the output. I w

Thank you for your help. However, your suggestion haven't solve the problem, the calculation environment I use is a supercomputing cloud environment. In this environment, the core is default to be 128, if the number is less then 128, system will regard it as 128. So I can't reduce the cores. >

Hello, you could try to set -pd .true. when executing bands.x, so in your case: srun -n 128 bands.x -pd .true. bands.out Best, Simon Am Freitag, Februar 23, 2024 11:31 CET, schrieb wangzongyi via users : > Thank you for your help. However, your suggestion haven't solve the problem, > the calc

[QE-users] changing cell size 1x1 to 3x3 does not provide same DOS & BS

hi, I am new to QE. I start with the simple pw scf code of graphene 1x1 unit cell (i.e. nat=2) then the DOS and BS was obtained. After that pw scf code was changed to 3x3 cell (i.e. nat =18) then the obtained DOS and BS was not similar to 1x1 (changing the number of kpoints was not make two BS

Dear all, I am currently engaged in a project that requires the simulation of a material doped with a *3% concentration (let's say)*. Given the specific nature of this task, I find myself in need of your expertise and guidance to proceed effectively. Please provide insights on the appropriate appr

Dear Wenusara, the 3x3 supercell has a much larger amount of vacuum, this is a typical source of problems with graphene, as one electron may like to wonder out in the vacuum.  Sticking to 5-10Å of vacuum is enough and should work fine, i.e. when you multiply celldm(1) by 3, you should also div
