Dear Liang Xiongyi<br>
<br>
There are a few things that should be changed in your input: for <br>
example dft-d3 is not implemented in cp.x., and nr(i)b=16 is a bit on <br>
the strict side (I generally use 20, but you should be sure that your <br>
value is insensitive to further change). However, dt=1 fs is a huge <br>
jump for CPMD and this is possibly the source of your <br>
orthonormalization error. You may try to use dt=1 a.u. for electronic <br>
minimization, and dt=3-6 a.u. for finite temperature runs. If you want <br>
to speed-up electronic minimization, then use pw.x and read the <br>
instructions for cp.x-pw.x interoperability to start a finite <br>
temperature CPMD from a ground state obtained by using pw.x. Remember <br>
also that, AFAIK, cppp.x is currently not usable for QE 6.3. You <br>
should write your own tool to analyze trajectories, as the prefix.pos <br>
output is written in a.u., too.<br>
