Re: troullier martin pseudopotential??

Many of the Troullier-Martin pseudopotentials have core radii whose sum is greater than the typical bond length. If the cores overlap, the results are generally bad. GTH pseudopotentials will avoid this problem, but the cutoff energy is much higher. PAW pseudopotentials offer accuracy and low cutoff...

Re: [SOLVED] Troullier-Martins Psuedopotential dl link broke

I too have Comcast internet service at home. It may be something as simple as the fact that the Comcast name server just cannot locate the Abinit server in Europe. I just tried from a friend's house that has Verizon FIOS internet service and everything worked fine. So it's Comcast's fault, not yours...

Re: GW convergence calculation

Ecut is determined by the ions and not the size of the cell, so your converged value of ecut should be fine for the larger
calculation. The good news is that you can probably lower the number of k-points for the larger cell.

Re: [SOLVED] Troullier-Martins Psuedopotential dl link broke

Link should be renamed [SOLVED-NOT!] The link is broken and it is network related. When I go to the University of Pittsburgh and attempt to download pseudopotentials everything works fine. When I try the same thing from home, I either get empty pages downloaded, or a statement that my system could n...
