[Pw_forum] Defining an antiferromagnetic graphene nanoribbon

[Roberto G. A. Veiga]

Dear Stefano:

I'm using Ultrasoft PPs. My question was because this cutoff (20 Ry) seemed to be appropriate for other carbonic systems.

Hi, Konstantin:

thank you very much. Such a large cutoff (80 Ry) is necessary for convergence? Or maybe I'm using one quite small (20 Ry)...

it depends on the PP you are using, I guess, and certainly NOT on the actual structure you are studying. 80 Ry seems like an appropriate cutoff for moderately hard norm-conserving PP's, whereas 20 Ry sounds like appriate for many US PP's. In either case, you better check the aprporiateness by yourself, through thorough convergence tests.

 Here is a ribbon input that works for sure:

 (get PPs from the PWSCF website)

 Good luck!
