[Pw_forum] Applying sawtooth filed parallel to a system

[Mohammed Ghadiyali]

Dear All,


Is it possible to use the sawtooth method as I require smearing for applying electric field parallel to a system?


I do understand the parameter edir can be used to specify the direction, but it also specifies the direction of vacuum.

I mean, I have a vacuum along the z-direction and I want to apply the electric field along the x and y-direction.

Then how to select the values of emoxpos and eopreg?
