Hi everyone, I've been trying to make a PP for chromium using atomic.
I've made one so far, but when testing Delta E is quite far out. I was
hoping to include some of the core electrons, but I'm not sure how to do it.
This is my input script at the moment:
&input
title='Cr'
zed=24.
iswitch=3,
nld=10
rlderiv=2.90,
eminld=-4.0,
emaxld=4.0,
deld=0.01,
rpwe=2.90,
rel=1,
lsmall=.true.,
dft='PBE',
verbosity='high',
file_charge='charge.out',
config='[Ar] 3d5 4s1 4p0',
/
&inputp
pseudotype=3,
file_pseudopw='Cr.pbe-sr-uspp-tm.UPF',
lloc=0,
nlcc=.true.,
new_core_ps=.true.,
tm=.true.,
rcore=2.0,
/
3
3D 3 2 5.00 0.00 1.5 1.5
4P 2 1 0.00 0.00 2.5 2.5
4S 1 0 1.00 0.00 2.5 2.5
I also wasn't sure which shell to use for lloc, but varying it hasn't
made a noticable change to the Delta E on testing.
Thank you,
