Hello, Wien-ML
I'm currently trying to calculate ELNES-Spectra of several modifications of
boron and am not entirely sure I'm doing this correctly.
The SCF-cycle went fine and also the Tasks/ELNES-part runs smoothly. However,
I'm not sure I got the settings correct, as the resulting plots show little
similarity with the spectra we measured.
I understand that the second line in case.innes is defined as:
line 2:
free format
NATO, NEQ Number of the selected atom (in case.struct file), number of
the equivalent position (set to to sum over all equivalent positions)
So by setting this to 1,0 I sum over all atoms generated by symmetry from atom
position "1" in case.struct. Is there a way to sum over all atoms of one
element? This might be the reason for the difference between calculation and
experiment, as I would need to summarize over the entire elementary cell.
Second my ELNES-plot starts at 0 eV. I have entered the energy of the incident
electrons (line 7) as well as the energy loss of the first edge (line 6), but
those values influence the plot only slightly, instead of shifting the
x-axis, as I would have expected.
Sincerely,
