[Pw_forum] LDOS on x-y direction, perpendicular to z

[Guido Fratesi]

Dear Alaaii,

it can be done by using projwfc.x
Have a look to examples/example16/README (task number 7) with volumes in 
the near-surface region. You can define volumes which span the full unit 
cell in x-y directions by setting irmin=1 and irmax to the number of 
points in the FFT grid.

Notice that:
Augmentation contributions are currently not included to the DOS in boxes

If you are partitioning charge inside a crystal, using the atom-projected 
DOS might be a better option.
