Orbital-decomposed DOS
« on: September 30, 2015, 17:23 »
Hello,

It would be great if it was possible to project the DOS (vasp DOSCAR) not only onto different shells (s,p,d,f) but also to do the decomposition of dxz, dxy, dzĀ²,.... in a similar way p4v (python for vasp) does it! This would be really crucial some analysis!
I think it was suggested already more than a year ago, will it be in the consecutive vnl-version?

Another suggestion: when doing atom-or orbital-decomposed DOS, it would be great to be able to add more lines in the same graph, e.g. to see the total DOS and the DOS of atom 1 and/or p-orbitals of atom one in the same plot!

Thanks a lot!

Yup, definitely on the to-do list for 2016, all of it :)

Dr. Anders Blom,
For the time being...can we take help of the Mulliken Population Report, in this regard ?? If yes, ...how accurate that would be?

Not really since it's not energy-resolved, and also not available for VASP results.

In my case.... I don't really have to compare it with any VASP result...../ Rather, I have to see.... whether a donor atom can pump electron into the incomplete 'Mo' 4dxy,yz,xz orbitals or, not...!!

For that the Mulliken populations work (but it is a bit unrelated to the original question of this topic :) )
