Hi,

With regards to my observation below, I was wrong to suggest there is a bug related to the keyword angdeg. Nevertheless, what I found is that the above issue occurs when the lattice length is large, and in this case when acell ~ 10. For smaller, acell, example, 7, the issue was not observed.

I would be most grateful if someone could suggest a reason for my observation.

Thanks,
George

Hi,

Sorry about that. For the _WFK, the option for the atomic analysis is 0 and output choice is 2 (I am doing a 0-kpoint calculation and thus the solution should be real.) For the _DEN, the cut3d option used is 5.

Last night, I realize that it seems to be due to the keyword angdeg. If, instead of angdeg, I use rprim, this issue does not arise. So, may I suggest that it is a bug?

Thanks,
George

Which options did you use in cut3d (ideally give us the input for that too). For the density part you analyzed the _DEN with cut3d as well?

I am doing a simulation for the diamond structure for Silicon as shown in the attached input files. Everything went well until I realize that the density of the electrons is not simply given by $2*\sum \psi2$. The density of the wavefunctions solution in real space are obtained using cut3d. The results, as shown in

http://web.mit.edu/~gpau/Public/Si/density.eps

shows that the density is not $2*\sum \psi2$. Does anyone know why? The data files and the pseudopotential file is available in

http://web.mit.edu/~gpau/Public/Si

The input file is as attached.

Thanks,
George
