[Pw_forum] uncertainty about the *.dynG file :what is "cubic" mean ? and what is the difference between *.dyn and *. matdyn file ?

[xu yuehua]

Dear Ding and Degiron

i  think about my problem again ,i think my lattice not belongs cubic
neither triangular lattice .it is unuall lattice .a=b, the angle of a and b
is 30 degree.a,b plumb c.it is supercell. thank your hints. i have to
redesign it .
