Dear all,<br><br>thank you very much for all the comments and hints to
my question. I just return from winter vacation. sorry for such a late
responding to this mail.<br><br>actually, my real question is not just
limited to total (free) energy of Pt. This is a part of study for Pt
atoms on titania surface, for example, anatase (101), as reported in J.
Phys. Chem. B 2006, 110, 7463. I think the system is not metallic, but
semiconductive system<br>

<br>When I want to calculated the binding energy between the surface
and the Pt atom, I need to have three total (free) energies, E(Pt),
E(surf.), E(relaxed)(Pt @ surf.). Mr. <font color="#888888">Paolo Giannozzi (Democritos and University of Udine, Italy)</font>
used to tell me that 'all energies should be calculated with the same
cell, cutoff, k-points, at the equilibrium geometry of the respective
system...'. So the E(Pt), E(surf.), E(relaxed)(Pt @ surf.) should use
the same parameters during the calculation. But there is some trouble
for me to calculate the E(Pt) using the same parameters as E(surf.),
E(relaxed)(Pt @ surf.). Do you think I should adjust the paremeter for
E(surf.), E(relaxed)(Pt @ surf.), which should be better for E(Pt)
calculation?<br>
<br>in order to make better understanding of my question, i'll show my
input file for E(Pt @ surf.). and the E(surf.) is calculated by just
removing the Pt atoms from the input file as well as related
parameters, such as nat, ntyp etc.<br>
