Hello everyone!
My name is Ge Xiaochuan, I have some puzzles in the energy items in the
output of PW.
the Fermi energy is -6.4869 ev
! total energy = -0.94493686 Ry
Harris-Foulkes estimate = -0.94493686 Ry
estimated scf accuracy < 5.8E-16 Ry
The total energy is the sum of the following terms:
one-electron contribution = -0.88071975 Ry
hartree contribution = 0.52197977 Ry
xc contribution = -0.50124138 Ry
ewald contribution = -0.05674602 Ry
smearing contrib. (-TS) = -0.02820948 Ry
I have two questions:
1.The Atom which I calculated is H. But why the hartree and xc
contributions exist when there is only one electron in the cell. If the
'self-interaction' is included, when there is only one electon, the sum of
hartree and xc part should be zero.
2.what is the relation of the orbit energy and the one-electron contribution.
Thanks in advanced for your kind replying.
