[Pw_forum] 'd' state pdos for Al

[Sai Kumar Ramadugu]

Dear Paolo,

After your email, I checked to see how this can be added. The ld1ps.wfc has
the values for 3s, 3p in the case of Al and those are printed in the
<PP_PSWFC> tag in a four column format. If I just do a all electron
calculation with iswitch=1, then the ld1.wfc prints the 3d but that
calculation will not generate the ld1ps.wfc from which the 3d atomic states
would be written to the pseudopotential file.

How can I manually add the atomic d states to the <PP_PSWFC>? If there is
something that I dont understand, I am willing to read more to implement
it. Please point me!

Thanks for your time again!

Regards
Sai Ramadugu
