the phonon-assisted absorption

[waynebeibei]

Hi all

Can yambo deal with the indirect transition between different k points, i.e. involving the phonon-assisted absorption?
yambo_ph seems to afford it, right? If true, what's the standard process for an el-ph BSE calculation? According to the tutorial, pwascf4.05 is adopted. How about the new version of pwscf, 4.05 is too outdate.

Hi,

altough yambo has all ingredients, at the moment, it cannot calcolate phonon assisted absorption.

Moreover, we are working on the QE-Yambo interface, to make it a standard component of QE. We hope to release it soon.

Dear Waynebeibei,

We have opened a subforum concerning electron-phonon calculation were you can post there problem you are facing and where we will be posting news about the ongoing development of the interfaces with Quantum Espresso as weil as technical and methodological informations about how to use the code.

Best,

Daniele
