Yambo Community Forum

Dear Developers,

Recently I performed a finite q BSE calculation for bulk hBN with Yambo 5.0.3 (attachment "bulk_hBN_interpolate_exciton_dispersion.rar"). Following the instruction of Yambo Tutorial of exciton plot http://www.yambo-code.org/wiki/index.ph ... e_excitons, I can interpolate exciton dispersion along certain k-path ("kpth"), but I get error information when interpolating on a given regular grid by setting :
So I look into the related source code and try to allocate this issue. It seems there's problem when read in the original q-grid and initializing variable "GRID_q", but I still can't determine the exact issue to fix this error.

Also, there's a second question related to phonon-assisted density of states tutorial http://www.yambo-code.org/wiki/index.ph ... emperature: is it require exciton dispersion on full BZ? Is it possible to get phonon-assisted density of states with interpolation results of certain k-path to reproduce the results of the tutorial?

It would be very helpful if we can get any suggestion with these questions. Thank you so much!

Best, Chunhao

Dear Chunhao,

the interpolation on grid is present only in version 5.1, that we will release soon.

other users asked the same question, in principle the code could work with a regular sub-grid, but it is not implemented yet, we will consider it in a new version
