ypp error after BSE

Post by sdwang » Tue Jan 30, 2024 10:22 am

Dear developers,
I got an error of ypp (v.5.2.1)when I sort the exciton as > ypp -e s -b 1 -J GW. The error is:
...
<---> [05] CORE Variables Setup
<---> [05.01] Unit cells
<---> [05.02] Symmetries
<---> [05.03] Reciprocal space
<---> [05.04] K-grid lattice
<---> Grid dimensions : 32 32
<---> [05.05] Energies & Occupations
<---> [06] Excitonic Properties @ Q-index #1
<---> [WARNING] Error reading SEC1 in ndb.BSS_diago, this can be due to the missing ndb.dipoles or ndb.ems1
<---> [WARNING] BSE databases not found.

<---> [07] Timing Overview
<---> [08] Memory Overview
<---> [09] Game Over & Game summary
...
My BSE calculation is normal and the absorption is also normal. I have ndb.dipoles and ndb.BS_diago since the absorption is normal.
I have searched the error and found an error like SEC, and it is not the case as mine.
Thanks!

Dear Shudong,

here it is not easy to understand what went wrong. Can you please post the report file r_BSiq_excitons?

Dear Shudong,

the BSE database is correctly found.
What I can see in the report is this error.

Code: Select all

 *ERR*[RIM] RL components col                     :  11
but I do not know the reason why. Maybe some discrepancy in the input used for the BSE construction and its diagonalization?
