<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Dear Wannier developers & experts,
<div>I am trying to calculate quantum anomalous Hall conductivity by using VASP+Wannier90.x+postw90.x, may I ask some questions:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Why the unit of ahc Anomalous Hall conductivity is S/cm? <span style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">von Klitzing constant </span><i style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">R</i><sub style="line-height: 1; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">K</sub><span style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> = </span><i style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">h</i><span style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">/</span><i style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">e</i><sup style="line-height: 1; font-size: 11px; color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">2</sup><span style="color: rgb(37, 37, 37); font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> =

in all previous report I read. Why this conductivity is S over a length?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. As I set in .win file:</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>fermi_energy_min = -2.685</div>
<div>fermi_energy_max = -2.485</div>
<div>
<div>berry = true</div>
<div>berry_task = ahc</div>
<div>berry_kmesh = 25 25 1</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>In the oupt .ahc. file I get:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div> -2.685000 -0.009966 -0.000345 -69.735021</div>
<div> -2.675000 -0.005905 -0.002186 -89.967445</div>
<div> -2.665000 -0.002600 -0.001902 -266.247099</div>
<div> -2.655000 0.002155 -0.003784 -266.146173</div>
</div>
<div>......</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> -2.495000 0.011176 0.013206 51.615581</div>
<div> -2.485000 0.014227 0.010831 32.024074</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But the grid of fermi energy is constantly 0.01eV no matter how I tune the fermi_energy min and max. I cannot find any tag in manual on making it denser. But I need a much denser plot to show the plateau of AHC. Is there any tag setup that can make it
denser£¿</div>

</div>
<div>3. <span style="font-size: 10pt;">Seems only wannier90-2.0 has postw90.x dealing with berry curvature, but as I first run vasp, it finishes without generating *eig,*mmn files, and if I then run wannier90, .werr comes out asking for *eig, *mmn files so
I cannot continue.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> But for wannier90-1.2, the first step by vasp will generate *eig, *mmn files and everything goes smoothly.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> So the problem is, will it be ok I first run vasp+ wannier90.x in --1.2 version, and the use postw90.x in --2.0 version?</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> Or is there anyway to solve the problems in the first step that vaspwannier90--2.0.0 cannot generate *eig,*mmn files?</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">4. </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">It was reported that Wannier90 can be used to calculate the edge Green¡¯s

<div><br>
</div>
<div> But I cannot find such function in the manual. Is there any tag setup that can calculate edge state of semi-infinite systems?</div>

<div>Thank you very much and your help is highly appreciated!</div>
