[Pw_forum] Question about Example10

[lan haiping]

Dear Paolo,

I then test this result with ph.x code.
The born effetive charge tensors obtained are greatly consistent with
published results in Zhong et al (PRL.72.3618) , for O sites (-5.81,-2.57,-
2.57) , for Pb sites (3.92,3.92,3.92) (all are  diagonal elements of E-U
tensors).

I then recalculated with Berry Phase method, and still cannot find
satisfactory results for O sites. A typical resulted tensor is (-5.84, -1.90
,-1.98).
Would you please give some comments ?

regards,
h.p
