<div style="line-height:1.7;color:#000000;font-size:14px;font-family:arial">I remember that ph.x can deal with ultrasoft pseudo-potential (may not work with PAW pseudo-potential)~ According to my own experience, since NCPP alway requires high cut-off energy, it will cost more time for phonon calculation~<br>Or, this website: http://www.sas.upenn.edu/rappegroup/htdocs/Research/psp_gga.html, provides norm-conserving pseudo-potential parameters for certain elements (a little big harder pp, so the cut-off around 100Ry is required). You can use opium code to generate UPF format pp based on the parameters.<br><br><div>--<br>GAO Zhe<br>CMC Lab, Materials Science & Engineering Department,<br>Seoul National University, South Korea<br>
