[Pw_forum] short range coulomb interaction

[ali kazempour]

Hi
 Thanks for reply. But my problem is that I have 3D crystal( I can not use ee). I think that if I put my unit cell that is surrounded by vaccum in the middle of supercell, then I can
separate the artifacts due to the interaction via periodic boundary
conditions(remove the large range coloumb interaction). Then If the
vaccum is big enough then I have a isolated cell that has a charge
inside. my question is  When I do charge calculation in isolated unit
cell (separated by vaccumm), does  the compensating charge  distribut
within whole cell or within isolated unit cell?
Then, How can I identify the the interaction of charge and compensating backgroun(the short range part)?
 thanks a lot
