Hi, In fact, these structures are not available yet for phonon DOS calculations via QHA.
But I am working on orthorhombic structures and hopefully will fix it soon. For monoclinic structures I am not sure. The presence of? predefined ttrinp file is crucial? for the program as it uses the tetrahedra method for integration over the IBZ. Another way is calculating phonon DOS via matdyn.x and then use obtained phonon DOS? with F_QHA.x. But keep in mind phonon DOS file name for F_QHA.x is PHDOS.out which contains 2 extra files in the beginning: # #? 1000? 320.4? 0.3207 ? The first line is empty Then? 1000 is total step, 320.4 is the highest frequency in cm^{-1} and 0.3207 is the fequency step. Hope this helps. Any questions, please. Bests, Eyvaz. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof. Eyvaz Isaev, Department of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (IFM), Linkoping University, Sweden Theoretical Physics Department, Moscow State Institute of Steel & Alloys, Russia, isaev at ifm.liu.se, eyvaz_isaev at yahoo.com ________________________________ From: Guntram Schmidt <guntram.schm...@chemie.uni-halle.de> To: pw_forum at pwscf.org Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2011 6:01 PM Subject: [Pw_forum] QHA and monoclinic/orthorhombic structures Dear All, when trying to understand the Examples of QHA, I saw that the script stops execution, when monoclinic or orthorhombic structures are tried to be calculated. Is there a way to get the gibb energy of a monoclinic structure at room temperature, anyway? Or is this "ttrinp" not neccesary to do such calculations? What is it for, anyways? I couldn't find any documentation on it... Thanks a lot for input on this, Guntram _______________________________________________ Pw_forum mailing list Pw_forum at pwscf.org http://www.democritos.it/mailman/listinfo/pw_forum -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
