[Pw_forum] More ncpp2upf and fhi2upf

[lan haiping]

Hi, Nicole:

Would you like to give me some  advices on generating semi-core
pseudopotential with Opium ? I always find it is quite difficult to  have a
proper  configurations and related  cut-off radius for semi-core PPs.   If
possible, please share some of your experience.

About  fhi2upf,  from my previous experience,  i didnot come to this problem
with semicore-PPs generated by
fhi98pp, since I donot  succeed in generating any proper semicore PPs with
opium.


Regards,
