[ERROR]EMPTY WF index

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)

[ERROR]EMPTY WF index

Post by plasmon » Thu Jun 25, 2020 9:48 am

Dear Developers,

When running the convergence test for Gbnd (148->158), it fails with the error message of
[ERROR] STOP signal received while in :[07.01] G0W0 (W PPA)
[ERROR]EMPTY WF index @ b:151 k:1 spin:1 ID:0

Could you please tell me how to fix this problem?Thank you!

Best,
Hao

Dear Hao,
you have computed 150 bands:

Code: Select all

[RD./SAVE//ns.db1]------------------------------------------
  Bands                           : 150
in nscf.in

Code: Select all

  ecutwfc = 40,nbnd = 150
If you want to use more bands you need to calculate them with quantum espresso first and redo the p2y and setup steps.

Best,
Daniele
