As for point charges, here is a small recipe for isolated molecules (see below) for the ESP/RESP procedure [A]. Reference is Bayly et al, J. Phys. Chem., 97, 10269 (1993). Final point charges for organo-metallic molecules compare fairly well with standard or published values. Another possibility i

Dear David, the projwfc.x postprocessing code computes the so-called "Lowdin charges" (at the end of the output), maybe that's something similar to what you want. GS Il giorno 01/dic/2010, alle ore 01.03, David Grifith ha scritto: > Dear All > > > I am trying to calculate the point charg

Dear All I am trying to calculate the point charge and the point spin density on each atom of a unit cell, certainly "WITHOUT" considering a 3D vector which is necessary as described in INPUT_PP guide file. Calculating the point charges and spins is customary in any quantum chemistry packages and

Dear Ali, you have to give a deeper thought on your concept of "putting the charge in the right position". In standard calculations this is a result not an input. As a specific example in the defects you mention, think at ionic systems where the charge localization around a given defect i

Hi I want to know if? espresso? can do charged vacancy calculation or not? I know about isolated atoms but I am not sure about big bulk supercell? If it can, how we can put the charge on the right position of the vacancy(which constraint should we introduced)? another question, Could anyone intro
