Dear QE users
I want to perform a convergence study on k-points and ecut for any
selected material. Lets take Si for example.
I used startingwfc and startingpot in order to use the last
convergence stuff as a starting point for the next one.
In the case of k-points there is no problems, we can use the
charge-density and wfc without problems. But, when we increase the Ecut,
pw.x stops with this error:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
from read_rho_xml : error # 1
dimensions do not match
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Is there exist any way to use the previous charge-density in order to
generate the starting potential? In particular looking for convergence in
Ecutwfc
I spent lot of time starting from the superposition of atoms.
Thanks in advance.
Ricardo
