Meeting 33, April 21th Theory: ZnSb Dispersion curve, First shot
PROCEDURE • Take structure from literature and relax with a constant volume algorithm to minimize forces to less than 10-3eV/Å on each atom. • Pressure at -3.68*10-3GPa • Calculate dispersion curve. • All runs used a 4x4x4 kpoint grid • Ecut = 35 Ha
