So the cell is reduced from 19 19 19 to 14 14 19. Apparently this is a sqrt(2) factor from a rotation by 45 degrees. It clearly is a reduction of the cell to a smaller one and you have to accept the suggestion of sgroup. Am 09.05.2017 um 18:45 schrieb Dr. K. C. Bhamu: Thank you Prof. Peter

Dear Prof. Victor, Thank you for providing refrence material. But test rmt_package is not working well with latest Wien2k code. I tried to optimise rmt but I see here that it run rmt for max 4 non-equivalent atoms unit cell only. Sorry: Not realized for more 3 atomes Then I tried for MgO and got

Thank you Prof. Peter for detailed reply, May be I still have some doubts on symmetries and need to read some literature. For meanwhile, from literature I came to know that the distortion in my doped structure "change in unit cell ("lattice parameters and angles")" may occur depending on size effe

You are mixing up the concepts of space groups and bravais lattice or unit cell. For a certain structural input, there is only ONE space group. However, even for one and the same SG, there are often several "settings", which can lead to VERY different unit cells (bravais lattices, latt

Accept the suggested structure. I always restart with initailization the new structure from nn. If you replace one of the atoms occupying a position with multiplicity .gt. 1 (with more than one position line in struct) you break the symmetries inducing that multiplicity. You may well wind up w

Dear Wien2k Users I am alloying a quaternery compound: replacing Cr with Br one by one. What I see is, the pristine compound is cubic with 225 SG. When I replace Cl by Br one by one then lattice parameters deviates from cubic to different structure. like a=b, c or a,b,c. SG also changes. During in
