[QE-users] error message: wrong offset

Ok, I found what is the issue. It is not a bug in the code.


The pseudo for Eu which was used (Eu.rel-pbe-spn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF) does not contain f states (i.e. they are frozen in the core), while f states are considered as a Hubbard manifold in QE for this element. Hence one of the following pseudos from the PSlibrary can be tried: Eu.rel-pbe-spdfn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF or Eu.rel-pbe-spdfn-rrkjus_psl.1.0.0.UPF. Note, in the name of the pseudo you can see "spdfn" which means that "f" states are included in the valence region (you can also see this by looking inside of the pseudo).


Cheers,

Iurii

Could you try with the latest version of QE, i.e. 6.5?

the latest development version has the same problem

Paolo


I checked your input: you put U on Eu f states. This seems to be almost properly coded in QE6.5: in Modules/set_hubbard_l.f90 there is hubbard_l = 3 which is the f shell, but in PW/src/tabd.f90 there is hubbard_occ = 6.d0 but I think it must be 7.d0 (but this should not be the origin of your problem). This being said, the routine PW/src/offset_atom_wfc.f90 should properly determine the offset in QE6.5. But you are using QE6.2.1, so maybe there is a bug, I do not know. Please check the latest version and send the output here if you still have a problem.


Greetings,

Iurii

I did check the cutoff, still the same error.

Ooops - you want SOC. Check carefully the cutoff, then - the non
relativistic version needed 140 Ry.
