I answered already,
you do not calculate the conductivity !

Please read and understand for example the books of Ziman "Electrons and Phonons" and Mizutani "Electron Theory of Metals"

Ciao

Dear Wien2k and Boltztrap users and Developers
Greetings from me. Plz help me.
I am working with Boltztrap using Wien2k.
I used following steps
1. SCF calculations have been converged with wien2k
2. I copied case.struct and case.energy fro wien2k working directory of compound and pest into GdFe2 directory in Bolztrap test directory.
2. Further, I copied x_trans and Boltztrap file along with case.intrans into same GdFe2 directory.
3.case.intrans consist following

                                                 I have made calculations for GdFe2 as example                                                   and got the results as given below

4. I edited Fermi energy and number of electrons in this file corresponding to GdFe2 available in case.scf file in wien2k working directory
5. using commands x_trans BoltzTrap and BoltzTrap BoltzTrap.def
    I got the results in case.trace file.

But problem is that As I got electrical conductivity and plot with temperature it is increasing with temperature while it should be decrease with increasing the temperature as GdFe2 have metallic character.
Should i need change other values in case.intrans file or there is other way to see the results present case.trace
Plz help in where i am doing mistake.
 Thanks in advance


Kind regard
