<br>
Thanks for your reply. I installed the QE4.3a and run a test with   input_dft = 'vdW-DF', but I got the error message below:<br>
<br>
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%<br>
     from read_kernel_table : error #         1<br>
     No \"vdW_kernel_table\" file could be found<br>
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%<br>
<br>
<br>
To fix it, should I install the kernel table or add some option with my compiling?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>

<br>
See "physical review" papers from Dion/Thonhauser/Langreth/Langreth<br>
<br>
Any improvement compared with semiempirical vdW scheme? In additional,<br>
is it applicable for all elements?<br>
<br>
I think so, but do not have extensive data. yes, it depends on the<br>
charge density, not on the elements.<br>
