Hello all,

Is it possible to use the " assume_isolated='esm' ", with the " esm_bc='bc2' " flag for a slab geometry and perform the dipole correction? I have tried with 'esm_field=0' but it doesn't seem to enforce the 0 field in vacuum. Rather it just performs a regular scf calculation with no applied field.

I know about the '2D' option but that adds other complications because if I increase the slab thickness, the vacuum region becomes really big in order to ensure that the Coulombian cutoff is not too close to the slab to influence the slab.

Is there a way to enforce a zero fieldĀ  in the vacuum region with ESM?


Regards,


Lucian
