Exatly,
As Giuseppe said, the cartesian coordinates of the atoms are written under the heading ATOMS in the xsf file in angstrom. Therefore it willbe necessary in your new QE input to change ATOMIC_POSITIONS{crystal} to ATOMIC_POSITIONS{angstrom}.? Note also that the followings parameters should be modified accordingly: nat, celldm(1) or CELL_PARAMETERS.

If you substitute by hand Z (numbers) with appropriate atom names you will obtain a xyz file HTH Giuseppe On Monday 26 March 2012 22:01:04 chengyu yang wrote: > Can some one else help please? > Thanks. > > > Chengyu Yang > MMAE, UCF -- ******************************************************** - Article premier - Les hommes naissent et demeurent libres et ?gaux en droits.
