<div>It is easier to figure out what the various "cell_dofree" options do from the code than from the documentation: look for routine 'init_dofree" in Modules/cell_base.f90 (iforceh(i,j)=0 means "keep component i of basis vector j fixed")<br>

Thanks for your reply but I am still not very sure I understand well the difference between the two options:<span class=""><br>
'xy' : only v1_x and v2_y are moved<br>
'2Dxy' : only x and y components are allowed to change<br>
<br>
</span>When the vectors v1 and v2 are not orthogonal (which is my case) the option 'xy' is not appropriate ?<span class=""><br>

<p>Dear Cyrille,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>from the input description:<br>
<br>
'xy' : only v1_x and v2_y are moved<br>
<br>
'2Dxy' : only x and y components are allowed to change<br>
<br>
Thus, even in the case of cell_dofree='xy' I think the cell will change. Anyway, the deviation from 120 DEG is quite small (119.43 DEG if I'm not wrong) - I don't know if this could be do to numerical issues. Maybe try starting a new relaxation with a hexagonal
cell but smaller in-plane lattice vector of ~99.1%</p>

Dear QE community<br>
<br>
I have a question related to vc-relax and the option cell_dofree.<br>
I want to relax a 2D metal-organic framework (MOF) with hexagonal lattice (ibrav=4)<br>
Could you please explain what is the difference between cell-dofree=xy and cell_dofree=2Dxy?<br>
<br>
I have noticed that when using cell_dofree=2Dxy the final CELL_PARAMETER is no longer perfectly hexagonal (see below). Should I use cell_dofree=xy instead and why?<br>
<br>
final:<br>
CELL_PARAMETERS (alat= 25.44640422)<br>
0.990921488 -0.000187347 0.000000000<br>
-0.495622997 0.858299558 0.000000000<br>
0.000000000 0.000000000 0.742630080<br>
