the convergent trend of NGsBlkXp

Concerns issues with computing quasiparticle corrections to the DFT eigenvalues - i.e., the self-energy within the GW approximation (-g n), or considering the Hartree-Fock exchange only (-x)

the convergent trend of NGsBlkXp

Post by hplan » Mon Dec 06, 2010 7:30 pm

Dear Developers:

I did a convergent trend of NGsBlkXp in self-energy calculations for graphene fluoride by fixing other parameters like BndsRnXp , GbndRange , FFTGvecs, and EXXRLvcs. I ploted relevant results of the energy gap versus NGsBlkXp, and found the whole trend is not monotonous . The result plot and relevant settings are attached. Would you please give me some further suggestions ?

input settings:
