an error about the number of atom?

Post by mina » Mon Sep 26, 2011 7:24 pm

Hello,
i am computing born effective charge by berry phase polarization.i use spgroup 161 and spgaxor 2 for rhombohedral FeTiO3 with two unit of FeTiO3 in unit cell (10 atoms) but i have an error.wolud you please guide me?
my input file:
ndtset 3
jdtset 1 2 3

Hello,
i am sorry, i have written typat in correct an it is typat= 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3. but i have that error again.Thank you for your attention.

Hello Mina,
It seems I got the same troubles, but

I think that typat should be consistent with xred and natrd, so the first were more correct.

Dear mima,

Last time when I deal with V2O5, I also countered this kind of problem. I solved this problem by changing the sequence of x, y, z in the xred and acell (e.g. the first I used the sequence of x, y, z , and then I changed to x, z, y and problem solved.). I don't know why but you may have a try. I'm not sure whether this will solve your problem or not

good luck

Shiyun
