Dear all,
I am a new user of Wannier90. Recently, I am using VASP + Wannier90 for 5d
systems. I have two questions.
1) why will the center of wanner functions shift during wannierising
process? Initially, I set up wannier functions at 5d element's site. Even
from the first step, the WF center shift.
for example:
wannier90.win:
"Begin Projections
c=0,0,0 :dyz;dxz;dxy: z=0,0,1: x=0.97,-0.2428,0
c=2.760835,2.760835,0 :dyz;dxz;dxy: z=0,0,1: x=0.97,0.2428,0
End Projections
"
I am expecting something like:
WF 1 0,0,0
WF 2 0,0,0
WF 3 0,0,0
WF 4 2.760835,2.760835,0
WF 5 2.760835,2.760835,0
WF 6 2.760835,2.760835,0
but in wannier90.wout:
" *------------------------------- WANNIERISE

4.40959827
WF centre and spread 3 ( -0.690210, -0.000002, 0.000000 )
118.47980281
WF centre and spread 4 ( 2.760835, 2.760835, 0.000000 )
4.13599014
WF centre and spread 5 ( 2.760835, 2.760835, 0.000000 )
4.13599017
WF centre and spread 6 ( 2.760832, 2.070626, 0.000000 )
210.53405406
Sum of centres and spreads ( 7.592293, 7.592295, 0.000000 )
346.10503382
"
2) For metallic system, are there more physical meaning to include more
states above Fermi level into the Frozen window? Or basically I can focus
the inner window at anywhere I am interested.
Thank you very much in advance!
