It's not easy because the DFT gap of InAs without spin-orbit is very small to nonexistent. You may try to include spin-orbit interactions (it is important for InAs) or, if you do not need the correct LO-TO splitting and dielectric constant, treat the system as a metal, with a small broadening

Thank you for the feedback, Paolo. Can you suggest any way of fixing this? On Tue, Oct 13, 2020 at 3:10 PM Paolo Giannozzi wrote: > If you look at the value of \epsilon you will notice a very large value > (likely a consequence of the smallness of the gap of InAs). In the force > constant file,

If you look at the value of \epsilon you will notice a very large value (likely a consequence of the smallness of the gap of InAs). In the force constant file, this appears as Paolo On Mon, Oct 12, 2020 at 3:53 PM Sheikh Ziauddin Ahmed wrote: > Hello > > I have been trying to calculate

Hello I have been trying to calculate the InAs phonon dispersion using version 6.5 but I am getting the following error while running matdyn.x: forrtl: severe (59): list-directed I/O syntax error, unit 1, file /scratch/07250/sza9wz/III_V/InAs/phon2/InAs-6.fc Image PC
