No, this energy difference is NOT the activation energy. You need to find the transition state. In the mixer there is a nice option, namely to use a constraint. With this option you can eg. drive an atom from (X1,y1,z1) to a final position, with the constraint that eg. the z1 coordinate should

Dear Shamik, Please check with CI-NEB. Well implemented with Quantum Espresso. You may need to read some literature as well. Regards Bhamu On Tue, Jul 20, 2021, 8:33 PM Laurence Marks wrote: > No, very very no! > > Please look up what activation energy is. > _ > Professor Laurence Marks >

Dear Prof. Laurence, Thank you for your response. If I know the initial & final step & if we just check the difference in energy of those two steps, whether the difference in energy can be taken as activation energy? with regards, On Tue, 20 Jul 2021 at 16:51, Laurence Marks

If you can isolate the transition state, e.g. by symmetry, then you can do it directly. Otherwise there is no NEB currently in Wien2k. _ Professor Laurence Marks "Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought", Albert Szent-Györgyi

Dear Wien2k users, Is it possible to compute the activation energy of hopping of Li/Na in an electrode material by using wien2k? Any response will be appreciated. with regards, -- Dr. Shamik Chakrabarti Research Fellow Department of Physics Indian Institute of Technology
