Installation and License Questions / Re: any one has the same err while connect to license server？

« on: February 27, 2019, 15:32 »

The port restrictions are mentioned elsewhere in the installation guide: https://docs.quantumatk.com/guides/license_server_linux.html#modify-the-server-line

I believe they apply to both the primary and secondary ports.

You can probably solve the problem by the approach mentioned here: https://docs.quantumatk.com/guides/license_server_linux.html#optional-adding-a-second-port

If not, we will need more information, and as Petr wrote, technical and license issues are better handled using the support e-mail.

General Questions and Answers / Re: some gate-source point did not convergence in IV characteristic

« on: February 27, 2019, 09:17 »

It really depends on why they did not converge, but if we assume that they were close to converging, I suggest that you use the function "setCalculator", to set a slightly different calculator for those points and then run ".update()" again. This will only recalculate those points, with the new calculator. See the manual page for details: https://docs.quantumatk.com/manual/Types/IVCharacteristics/IVCharacteristics.html

General Questions and Answers / Re: Can we use ATK to calculate the real-space PDOS?

But why do you want spatial resolution then? You posted something with a length scale of nm, so that strongly implies many layers in the direction you wish to resolve.

You can give each layer of atoms a different tag, and then project on tags.

You may also use a device configuration of course, but I assume that you already considered that?

Please see also the new document about convergence of this kind of system: https://docs.quantumatk.com/technicalnotes/spin_polarized_negf_convergence_guide/spin_polarized_negf_convergence_guide.html

Scripts, Tutorials and Applications / Re: How to run 2017 version py file

It looks like a syntax error from Python itself, and this has not changed between those versions. Also, I can run it without any syntax errors, so it seems to be an issue with the way you run it on the cluster.

Yes, you can just call atkpython from the 2017 installation directory.

General Questions and Answers / Re: Geometry optimization not converging

« on: February 1, 2019, 12:46 »

Sounds like you should give it more time - 12 hours on 4 cores is probably not enough. Hard to say more without the log though.

I would also recommend that you use the PseudoDojo pseudopotentials instead. The OMX ones can be quite hard as described here: https://docs.quantumwise.com/manual/technicalnotes/atk_pseudo_basis/atk_pseudo_basis.html

General Questions and Answers / Re: Pseudopotential to use for Cr metal

« on: January 30, 2019, 14:21 »

We recommend the PseudoDojo pseudopotentials, hence the choice of them as defaults. Otherwise, I would recommend that you either use the same type as for the other elements, or test those that are available to find the best fit for your purposes.

No, not yet. We are using it internally, but it is too early to say which form we will use when presenting the examples.

The methodology used in our implementation is described here: https://docs.quantumwise.com/manual/technicalnotes/hybrid_functionals/hybrid_functionals.html

No, you may use what is called "Analysis from file" as described here: https://docs.quantumwise.com/tutorials/compute_from_converged_simulations/compute_from_converged_simulations.html

« on: January 28, 2019, 14:49 »

You can calculate the electron density for a specific spin component, as described here: https://docs.quantumwise.com/manual/Types/ElectronDensity/ElectronDensity.html

Is that what you are looking for?
