yambo from pwscf

Post by Soumendu Datta » Tue Aug 04, 2009 1:23 pm

Dear Everybody,
I am a new user of yambo. One query:
In yambo calculation with DFT inputs from Pwscf, is it necessary to perform
PWscf calculation with norm-conserving pseudopotential ?
Will Vanderbilt ultrasoft pseudopotential be ok for yambo interface ?

Dear Soumendu,
ultrasoft pseudopotentials are not supported,
as stated in the FAQ of the yambo website.

Cheers,

Daniele
