[QE-users] Inconsistency | It seems that omega_ln is in the unit of meV rather than K

Dear Mitsuaki,
Thank you very much  for pointing out the crux. I just realize that the structure is not stable under high pressure. Things are different from the cubic H3S structure without the carbon replacement.


Sincerely

Dear Dr. Jibiao Li

I performed the calculation by using your input files.
At the first q point [q = (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)], I obtained six imaginary
frequencies as follows:
     freq (    1) =     -64.626507 [THz] =   -2155.708217 [cm-1]
     freq (    2) =     -64.626507 [THz] =   -2155.708217 [cm-1]
     freq (    3) =     -64.626507 [THz] =   -2155.708217 [cm-1]
     freq (    4) =      -1.506110 [THz] =     -50.238408 [cm-1]
     freq (    5) =      -1.506110 [THz] =     -50.238408 [cm-1]
     freq (    6) =      -1.506110 [THz] =     -50.238408 [cm-1]
     freq (    7) =       1.768616 [THz] =      58.994680 [cm-1]
        :
Is it the same as your result?

I guess this structure is unstable.
It is better to relax the structure first.

meV rather than K

Dear All, 

I am trying to calculate Tc of the C-S-H system by simply replacing one S
atom by one C atom in the cubic cell. Followed by the instruction by Dr.
Mitsuaki Kawamura, I computed lambda and omega_ln with matdyn.x by using the
tetrahedron method (see the inputs).

However, I found the Tc would be too small if we take the unit of omega_ln
in Kelvin when comparing the outcome with that in references. On the
contrary, it would be more reasonable to treat it in the unit of meV. Is
omega_ln truly in Kelvin?  What's wrong with my calcualtions?

CHS: lambda=1.25, omega_ln=137.33 (K??)  Tc=Too small 
H3S: lambda=1.31, omega_log=127.93 meV, Tc=164 K  (Scientific Reports 7,
4473 (2017))
H3S: lambda=2.41, omega_log=109.00 meV, Tc=255 K  (Eur. Phys. J. B 89, 63
(2016))
H3S: lambda=2.58, omega_log=1336.0 K,     Tc=267 K  (Phys. Rev. B 91, 224513
(2015))
