Greetings,
I'm trying to use plot_num = 3 to image the metal induced gap states in a metal/insulator heterostructure and what I'm getting doesn't make much sense: there should be a roughly exponential decay into the insulator from both interfaces, but I find the Fermi-level ldos in the insulator is roughly the same as in the metal, and there are some regions in the metal where there is essentially zero Fermi-level ldos. Anyway, my question is: Where does the pp.x program get the value of degauss that it uses to smear out the eigenvalues for the ldos calculation? I want to try changing this to see what happens to the result. Cheers, J. D. Burton ************************************ J. D.
