<p>Sorry, this is true for most elements. But just for a few elements the second Hubbard channel is not of the s character. One should always check "<span>set_hubbard_l_back</span>".

<p>Dear Will,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The implementation of the multi-channel DFT+U and DFT+U+V codes is in the experimental stage (please use it with
<span>caution</span>), we are still working on it to make it more user-friendly and robust. This is why there is no much documentation about it yet.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>In principle, yes you can use the DFT+U+V <span>machinery</span> to do what you want: to apply two different U values to 4f and 5d states of Gd and set V to zero. But actually there is a multi-channel implementation also in the DFT+U
<span>machinery</span>, but this was not advertised yet for the reasons mentioned above. But you can see some examples in q-e-6.6/<span>test-suite/pw_lda+U</span> (in you case you should check "<span>lda+U_background_one_channel.in"</span>).
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p></p>
<div>> Error in routine init_lda_plus_u (1):<br>
> lda_plus_u calculation but Hubbard_l not set</div>
<p></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I presume that you get this problem because there is something wrong in your input. If you share your input it would be useful to find what is wrong.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Note that by default the second Hubbard channel per atom is of the "s character". If you want to change it to something else, then you need to modify the routine "<span>set_hubbard_l_back</span>". The main Hubbard channel is specified in "<span>set_hubbard_l</span>"
(in your case for Gd it is hard-coded and it is 4f), and the secondary ("background" [1]) Hubbard channel is specified in "<span>set_hubbard_l_back</span>" (in your case for Gd you need to specify that it is the d channel, i.e. <span>hubbard_l_back</span>
= 2). This modification must be done for both DFT+U and DFT+U+V <span>machineries.</span><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Greetings,</p>
<p>Iurii<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p></p>
<div>[1] Note, the terminology "<span>background</span>" is a bit misleading. It should not be called like that (in general), because this is just a second Hubbard channel per atom. It is called "<span>background</span>" for historical reasons: this secondary
(background) channel was originally implemented to do something else and hence it has such a name. But we want to change this naming, and only then advertise these features to the QE community.</div>
