Dear all,

I wonder if the electric field can be applied when performing the
geometry optimization using abinit. That is, to optimize the model in a
homogeneous electric field. Is the variable efield useful? But it must
be used in the case of Berry phase method (berryopt==4). Thank you.

Best regards.
