Dear Prof. Stefano,
Sorry for inconvience. Actualy i want to study my syetm in ZB structure
with only the Hubbard 'U' value for 'Ga'.
So for calculating 'U' value for 'Ga' i am using linear response method
given in Matteo
Cococcioni<http://publish.aps.org/search/field/author/Matteo%20Cococcioni>
Thesis
and in paper "Linear response approach to the calculation of the effective
interaction parameters in the LDA+U method" by Matteo
Cococcioni<http://publish.aps.org/search/field/author/Matteo%20Cococcioni>
* and Stefano de
Gironcoli<http://publish.aps.org/search/field/author/Stefano%20de%20Gironcoli>
 .

Sir 'GaAs' is a compound so for calculating 'U' value of 'Ga' i have to
take the different structure with different atoms only for  'Ga' or should
i take 'GaAs' as whole given in my previous script. I have taken this
script from the tutorial in workshop held in 2009 and by compiling r.x i
can extract the chi and chi0 for the element.

But Sir i was totaly struck with the results which i  am obtaining.
Please help me in this regard.
