Dear Dr. Lurii,
Thank you for the good comment and providing the reference paper. I will
read it.

With the same phonon input file, I have computed phonon band structure for
various compounds and I never faced any such warning, Error in routine
diropn (34):.
Could you please make any comment on this? The present structure is a slab
while my previous structures were 3D structures.



Thank you
Bhamu
