Stefano, thanks a lot for pointing my mistake out. In the entropy term, besides phonon and electronic entropy, how to calculate the structural entropy?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Apr 18, 2010 at 9:25 AM, Stefano Baroni <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:baroni@sissa.it">baroni@sissa.it</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Phonons have nothing to do with the question asked by Cecil, as long as the temperature is low enough. Even less, the electronic entropy, as long as the the system insulating (even in metals, the electronic entropy play a very little role, below the Farmi temperature which is typically several thousands degrees ...). Even considering temperature effects, it is not the "free energy" that has to be made equal (usually, one indicates with this term the Helmholts free energy, E-TS), but the "Gibbs free energy" (E-TS+PV). Hope this clarifies a bit ... SB<div>

<br>
I am working on the pressure induced phase transitions of GaAs, I have<br>
already obtained, the respective EV data for the structures and want<br>
to get the transition pressures for the structures, Any advice on how<br>
this can be done in Espresso?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
