<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have some pseudopotentials which were generated
with the FHI code that I'm trying to use with pwscf.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I used the fhi2upf utility, and I enter in the
information (which I believe is correct) for converting the pseudopotential
(output attached as fhi2upf.output.txt). One issue I notice is when I run
pw.x, it outputs this:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV><FONT face=Arial
size=2> PSEUDO 1 is
Li zval = 1.0
lmax= 3 lloc= 0<BR> (in numerical
form: 433 grid points, xmin = 0.00, dx = 0.0000)<BR></FONT>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However, the local potential for this
pseudopotential should be 2, as was entered into fhi2upf. I can fix this
manually in the UPF file, but I don't know what part of the file needs to be
modified to do that. Can someone tell me what needs to be changed?
It gives reasonable results for relaxation of atoms, but I think dynamical
properties (phonons, el-ph coupling) may be more sensitive to this type of
issue?</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
