[Pw_forum] GIPAW pseudopotentials

Hi,
Actually, one of the tutorials on the QE site has a step-by-step
pseudopotential generation tutorial showing how to generate the AE
calculation, examine the logarithmic derivatives, etc. This tutorial
suggests looking at the file (well, in my case) 'Mg-oct09ps.wfc' to look
at the pseudo-generated orbitals. Is this incorrect? What do the
individual file/s mean in the "file_wfcncgen=" input? Thanks!

Peter Pallister

Dear Peter,
the wavefunctions are generated on a logarithmic radial grid, around 15
bohr the points are very coarse, btw how are you examining the
wavfunctions? (there is not file_wfcncgen='..' in your input).

best regards
