Betreff: Re: [Wien] optimization of an orthorhombic cell<br>
<br>
Dear List,<br>
<br>
<br>
Could you please help me to get optimize lattice parameters from the procedure that I followed as mentioned below:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The procedure is a four-step task what I am following:<br>
<br>
The original lattice parameters were: a, b, c=16.763005, 24.803600, 16.320431 >> vol 6785.64777697697 bohr^3.<br>
<br>
<br>
1. VARY C/A RATIO with CONSTANT VOLUME and B/A (orthorh lattice)<br>
<br>
getting below optimized data:<br>
=============================<wbr>=============================<br>
Lowest point on X-axis is = -1.615800<br>
Minimum value of B/A is = 1.455755<br>
Minimum value of ENE is = -339059.104498 Ry<br>
=============================<wbr>=============================<br>
Value of A is = 16.85428 bohr ; 8.91890 Ang<br>
Value of B is = 24.53569 bohr ; 12.98373 Ang<br>
Value of C is = 16.40929 bohr ; 8.68342 Ang<br>
=============================<wbr>=============================<br>
Initial value of B/A is = 1.479663<br>
Conv. Unit Cell Vol = 6785.7557 bohr^3 ; **********Ang^<br>
<br>
<br>
2. Volume optimization using option 1 in "x optimize" and then calculating new volume from eplot option.<br>
<br>
<br>
Query: Step two is giving optimized volume but I do not know how to calculate lattices parameters from a single volume<br>
value for the next step "VARY C/A RATIO with CONSTANT VOLUME and B/A (orthorh lattice)"?<br>
<br>
<br>
The original cell volume and lattice parameters are mentioned at the beginning.<br>
<br>
and the new volume from step two is: 6815.3427 bohr^3<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The above same query is for the remaining process:<br>
<br>
3. optimization of C/A<br>
<br>
4. optimization of V.<br>
<br>
<br>
*5 At the final step I will do structural relaxation (min_.....).<br>
<br>
<br>
Could you please advice me how to proceed?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Bhamu<br>
<br>
<br>
