Dear list,
I am trying to simulate the Al-L2,3 egde for a simple structure of
hexagonal AlN. Despite having calculated the N-K edge correctly, when I
change the case.innes in order to account for the Al 2p transitions, I get
an error from the TELNES program. I assume this is because Wien is
considering that Al 2p are not core states (the energy for the core /
valence separation is the default, -6 Ry).
After doing the lstart program, the case.outputst reads the following (for
Al):
Al RHFS
NUMBER OF ITERATIONS 350
PRECISON OF ENERGIES 5.00E-07
WAVEFUNCTION 1.00E-06
POTENTIAL 1.00E-06
INTEGRATION WITH 971 POINTS STARTING AT 0.0013/13 AND INCREMENT 0.0126
ORBITAL OCCUPATION TRIAL ENERGIES
1S 1.000 -4.2250000E+01
1S 1.000 -4.2250000E+01
2S 1.000 -1.0562500E+01
2S 1.000 -1.0562500E+01
2P* 1.000 -1.0562500E+01
2P* 1.000 -1.0562500E+01
2P 2.000 -1.0562500E+01
2P 2.000 -1.0562500E+01
3S 1.000 -4.6944444E+00 N
3S 1.000 -4.6944444E+00 N
3P* 1.000 -4.6944444E+00 N
3P* 0.000 -4.6944444E+00 N
A RELATIVE ENERGY PRESSION OF 1.00E-08 IS USED IN 50 ATTEMPTS
IEX= 13 ICUT= 1 IPRAT= 0
THE PRATT SCHEME IS USED
953 RADIAL MESH POINTS REACH UP TO 16.1487087483970 A.U.
I would like to ask you what are the steps to get the Al-L edge? Do I have
to restart the SCF with a new separation energy (-4.7 Ry, possibly) or is
there a more straightforward path (for instance, changing the case.inc
file)?
My best regards,
Pedro
