  1. Electron poor materials research group Group meeting Dec 9, 2010 Theory- Si. Symmetry break bader analysis

  2. Procedure • Break the symmetry of Si by adding a slight atomic shift in POSCAR • Perform a static calculation on the target structure. • Calculate the bader analysis for the compound. • Compare to non-symmetry broken Si.

  3. INCAR_static System = Si SIGMA = 0.01 #RECOMMENDED MINIMUM SETUP PREC = ACCURATE #PRECISION ENCUT = 320 LREAL = .FALSE. #.FALSE. MEANS USE RECIPROCAL LATTICE ISMEAR = 0 #USE GAUSSIAN SMEARING #FOR GW CALCULATIONS #LOPTICS = .TRUE. #NBANDS = 96 #FOR BADER ANALYSIS LAECHG=.TRUE. NGXF = 120 #USE 6X NGX for bader analysis NGYF = 120 NGZF = 120
