I think that there is no problem in doing a G=0 response<br>
with a shifted mesh. The response is at G=0, hence it couples<br>
wfcs at the same k. The susceptibility depends a lot on k-points<br>
sampling and if your system has a vanishing band gap, convergence<br>
can be a nightmare.<br>
By default the macroscopic shape is diagonal:<br>
nmr_macroscopic_shape(:,:) = 0.d0<br>
nmr_macroscopic_shape(1,1) = 2.d0 / 3.d0<br>
nmr_macroscopic_shape(2,2) = 2.d0 / 3.d0<br>
nmr_macroscopic_shape(3,3) = 2.d0 / 3.d0<br>
You can change the component (demagnetizing field) in the input file.<br>
<br>
Good luck for your calculations!<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
