<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Dear Pwscf,<br><br></div>In my phonon calculations i got one imaginary mode in gamma to X direction. I want to know which mode it is? and due to which atom it is happening?<br><br></div>I checked the case.ph.out file. In this file it is given like below.<br>
<br>Mode symmetry, O_h (m-3m) point group:<br> omega( 1 - 3) = -16.6 [cm-1] --> T_1u G_15 G_4- I<br> omega( 4 - 6) = 122.3 [cm-1] --> T_1u G_15 G_4- I<br> omega( 7 - 9) = 145.0 [cm-1] --> T_2g G_25' G_5+ R<br>
omega( 10 - 12) = 258.5 [cm-1] --> T_1u G_15 G_4- I<br><br clear="all"><div><div><div>Here i am attaching the case.agr file <br></div><div><br></div><div>Here all acoustic modes are given with same frequency. How can know that particular mode name.<br>
<br><br></div><div> My system is X2YZ type. How can i know this imaginary mode is due to which atom. I plotted partial phonon density of states also. But all atoms are giving same contribution in this acoustic mode region.<br>
<br></div><div> Thank you in advance.<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
