[Pw_forum] BEC from DFPT

[Сергей Николаев]

Dear all,
I am trying to calculate Born effective charges from DFTP for the spin-polarized system. However, these systems must be treated as metallic (scf-calculation with occupations='smearing').
The problem is that ph.x complains about my calculation, but the system has an insulator behavior.
Are there any methods to solve this problem?
 
Sincerely,
