<div>Dear Paolo,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I then test this result with ph.x code. </div>
<div>The born effetive charge tensors obtained are greatly consistent with published results in Zhong et al (PRL.72.3618) , for O sites (-5.81,-2.57,-2.57) , for Pb sites (3.92,3.92,3.92) (all are diagonal elements of E-U tensors).
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I then recalculated with Berry Phase method, and still cannot find satisfactory results for O sites. A typical resulted tensor is (-5.84, -1.90,-1.98). </div>
<div>Would you please give some comments ?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>regards,</div>
