Hi QE users,
in order to calculate energies with the vdw functional, I have used
input_dft = 'vdW-DF'.
At the beginning of the output file, it is written:
Exchange-correlation = VDW-DF ( 1 4 4 0 1 0)
what do the ( 1 4 4 0 1 0) numbers mean?
Thanks !

Dear all,
I cannot find any documentation about vdw code. Please describe basic
approaches used for polarizability calculations.
Examples 33 and 34 illustrates how to use ph.x and vdw.x to calculate
polarizability of methane molecules. But results do not agree esecially for
static value. Which met

Nothing of interest for the general user, actually, but very useful
for debugging. They are the indices that define what functional is
actually used. DFT labels (e.g. vdW-DF) are translated into 6 indices:
exchange, correlation, gradient correction to exchange, to
correlation, non-local contributio
Hi, all
I have something not clear about the vdw-df implementation.
It is mentioned in the example that we'd better use revised pbe when using
the vdw-df, but "revPBE" itself is another xc-functional? What do we do now?
Do we write the input_dft="revPBE+vdW-DF2"?
or we do "revPBE" first and use
The revised PBE that should (perhaps) be used with vdW-DF is for exchange
only. The vdW-DF functional is strictly a correlation functional. So what
you really want is SLA (local exchange piece) PW (local correlation piece)
RPB (semi-local exchange piece) and VDW (non-local correlation piece). If
Never mind, I got it. Someone can delete the previous message.

I think you can use revPBE to produce the PPs for using,and in your
calculation you can set the input_dft='vDW-DF',that's what the example
mean.Could you tell me where you find the information of the example?
