Hi, All.<br> I have read a work of Prof Marzari performed by QE package to compute static dielectric properties of nanotube systems : PRL 96, 166801. <br> To extract dielectric quantities, there are 2 methods mentioned in this work. I have a question about the method adopted by the sawtooth potential . In order to obtain transverse polarizability , we need know the dipole moment induced by external sawtooth potential . I have done several tests on similar systems carbon nanotube (6,0), but i have not found how to extract such induced dipole moment .
<br> Would anyone please give me a hand on this subject ? Any tips or references are appreciated !<br><br> Best wishes <br> Hai-Ping <br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Hai-Ping Lan <br>Department of Electronics ,<br>Peking University , Bejing, 100871
