Dear Mohammadreza Hosseini,

Please try to understand the concept of "back-folding" when using super-cells hen calculating band structures. There are programs to "unfold" the band structure, for example by Jonas Björk.

And please do not reply directly to the Digest-messages; use an appropriate Subject and post only the relevant part of the Digest-message - or start a new thread, if there is nothing in the digested message that you refer to, like in your case. Thank you. :)

    Greetings from the aeroport of Lisbon,

Dear All

I am calculating the band structure of phagraphyne. First we computed for 
primitive unit cell and then for the 2X2 supercell. Although the bulk structure 
is same the band structure is different. What is the problem ?  Should 
parameters be optimized again for supercell?

Hi,
I am graduate student at Clemson university, currently working with Quantum
Espresso. I would like to know how to determine the symmetry of a given

Hello,
it is printed in the output of phonon at the end of the calculation, i.e.:

   End of self-consistent calculation

Dear Alan,
    I think that there is no problem in doing a G=0 response
with a shifted mesh. The response is at G=0, hence it couples
wfcs at the same k. The susceptibility depends a lot on k-points
sampling and if your system has a vanishing band gap, convergence
can be a nightmare.
By default the macroscopic shape is diagonal:
  nmr_macroscopic_shape(:,:) = 0.d0
  nmr_macroscopic_shape(1,1) = 2.d0 / 3.d0
  nmr_macroscopic_shape(2,2) = 2.d0 / 3.d0
  nmr_macroscopic_shape(3,3) = 2.d0 / 3.d0
You can change the component (demagnetizing field) in the input file.

Good luck for your calculations!

Best,
    Davide

Dear QE users and Developers,

I'm working with NMR calculations in Gipaw. Recently I did some shielding
calculations and I have some questions regarding the magnetic susceptibility.
The article from developers Mauri et al (*PRL 77, 26, 1996*) explain that the
shielding of a bulk of a periodic system is also periodic (i.e. has the same
periodicity of *G*, the reciprocal lattice vectors), and it is proportional to
the magnetic susceptibility matrix. In the paper Mauri did a short discussion
about the macroscopic susceptibility, which is calculated at *G=0*. Follow my
questions:

i) Assuming that the macroscopic susceptibility is calculating at gamma point
(*G=0*) and depends of the sample's shape, Does make sense to do a NMR
calculation with automatic kpoints (monkhorst pack grid)  that does not include
the gamma point? It is mandatory to including the gamma point when the shape
correction is .true.?

ii) Does the susceptibility depends of the supercell size? I found very
different susceptibilities for the same material (AB graphite) changing the
supercell size.

iii) Why the susceptibility  matrix is not diagonal when the shape correction is
.true.? Assuming the Mauri paper I think it doens't make sense. Help me to
understand...


I appreciate any help,

Thanks in advance,


Alan.
