Dear Sohail Ahmad Before all why 5.0.1? It is not only an outdated version (10/05/2012!) which nobody has anymore interest in debugging/improving, but it is also the first version of the 5.x release, and it is therefore probably full of bugs that have been corrected later. If you want to stick

Dear all, Both of "set_hubbard_l.f90" and also "tabd.f90" are working nicely for both scf and nscf runs after editing them for C and F atoms. Therefore, I could get the correction to the energy levels and magnetic comment using GGA+U. However, by executing bands.in to plot predicted GGA+U

Dear F. Marsusi > Is this what one expected always from +U calculations, As I told you before nothing can be considered as "expected" when you apply the U correction to a strongly hybridized sp2 system such as a pi- conjugated molecule or graphene. In my experience this is not a good idea,

Dear Giuseppe, Many thanks for your quick response. As you have correctly guessed, the system is an organic material (fluorinated graphene). From U=0 to 3.4, M is increasing gradually up to the expected value, M remains constant till U=3.6 eV, then by increasing U, again M is reduced very soon

Dear F. Marsusi First of all you are not providing any detail of your system, so we cannot even guess what is "natural" for it. However, you are using the Hubbard U correction in a semiempirical way, and there is therefore no way to choose the U value but that reproducing some measured

Dear all, By GGA+U as implemented in QE, the correct magnetization (M) and band gap was obtained. The correct U value for each atom was obtained by intensive step by step runs to reach gradually the experimental M value, and therefore band gap. All results are OK till now (the U value itself

Dear Dhirendra The hubbard_l and hubbard_occ variables identify the angular momentum channel and starting occupation of the electronic shell you are going to correct with U, respectively. In the case of Si, Ge and Sn the values are usually set to the same values of C (1 and 2.0), but remember

Dear Saha, maybe the problem is a "formal" one. Open the PP file (maybe you want to share it with this community) and make sure the name of the element is a) present (not sure whether the code would stop or not without the name); b) written exactly 'Eu'. That is what the code has instructions
