[QE-users] hp.x - appropriate way to handle single dopant

2024-05-20 Thread Abdul Muhaymin via users
Hello all, I am investigating single TM dopant in wide band gap semiconductors such as Co in ZnS. I am using a 64 atoms supercell where I replaced one of the Zn atom with a Co atom. I tested several convergence with respect to the supercell size. My results seem fine except the band gap. Now I

Dear Bouafia, you might look for parallelization hints on the website. The correct use of the available resources depends on the architecture of your computer and on the size of the calculation. You should first understand if the result you find in terms of computational time are due to the fact

Dear Shuai, I cannot reproduce the error, I have copied the input file attached in your last email and launched band_interpolation.x with qe version 7.2, using the xml file of pbe_fourier example. It works as expected. IC ___ The Quantum ESPRESSO comm

Hi For two nodes of 18 processors each, how to choose the number of processors (-np with -npool) because the calculation with a single node (-np 18) is much faster than that with two nodes (-np 36). Sincerely H Bouafia ___ The Quantum ESPRESSO community

Dear Vishva, I'm maybe misunderstanding your question, but are you looking for the properties of a N2 molecule? You're speaking about the magnetization of N2 that indeed should turn out to be zero. However your input file contains 20 atoms. If you try to visualize your structure, that is always a
