Hello,

You can find norm-conserving pseudopotentials at the following webpage : http://www.abinit.org/downloads/psp-links/pseudopotentials
The LDA Troullier Martins, LDA HGH, LDA from FHI, GGA from FHI pseudos are all available for Cd, Te and Se.

If you would like to work with PAW pseudopotentials, you could try to generate your PAW datasets by your own with AtomPAW (http://www.abinit.org/downloads/PAW/AtomPAW2Abinit-Manual-html/AtomPAW2Abinit2.htm).
