Bang gap of RbGeCl3

Dear all Greetings... I am trying to calculate band gap of cubic perovskite RbGeCl3, attached is my inputs and outputs. The value of the band gap changes with the change of the number of bands used in the computation of Eigen functions and Eigen values (dataset 2), How I know what the correct number...

Re: Phase transition under pressure?

Dear Eric
When i was varying lattice parameters of the non-cubic phase, i was varying in somehow to keep a/c ratio constant..
I have tried optimization at hydrostatic pressures also, The non-cubic phase was turning to almost the cubic one, means it gives me nearly the same results...

Phase transition under pressure?

Dear all I am trying to calculate phase transition of CsSnBr3 from pm-3m cubic to p4/mbm tetragonal under pressure the cubic contains 5 atoms per unit cell while tetragonal contains 10 atoms per unit cell I have varied lattice parameters of the unit cell of both and calculated energy then I have cal...

Re: Optimization of tetragonal perovskit???

Dear Nawzad, You indeed break the symmetries with the cell parameters but you kept the atomic positions to high-symmetry ones and it sounds your system goes back to cubic if all the atomic positions are in high-sym (and I would say as it should be for perovskites without epitaxial constraints). Alt...

Re: Phase transition under pressure?

Dear Nawzad ABINIT performs the structural optimizations by keeping the symmetries of the initial structure. It seems that your system has the cubic symmetry (Pm-3m). If you do not allow ABINIT to leave this space group, it is normal that the system remains always cubic. Simply break the symmetries...
