I am a new user for Quantum Espresso(QE). Recently I have installed Quantum Espresso in my system. Now i am struggling to give input file in QE. How to generate input file in QE?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
It seems that their website provides a tutorial. Why don't you follow that.
Also they say the graphical interface can be used to generate input data or it can be taken from some other software.
 
Thank you Kholdstare.
Yes they have given the tutorial in their website.Their tutorial describes general structure of input file. And I could run the default example files which are given in Quantum Espresso (QE). But my doubt is how to create my own input file for my chosen material.

They have a dedicated QE forum. You might have better luck asking there. (though looking at the vagueness of your Question I doubt it.)
 
From the BCS theory of superconductivity is well known that the superfluid density smoothly decreases with increasing temperature. Annihilated superfluid carriers become normal and lose their momenta on lattice atoms. So if we induce a persistent supercurrent in a ring below Tc and after that slowly increase the temperature, we must observe a decrease in the actual supercurrent, because the density of electron pairs and total supercurrent momentum decrease. However, this supercurrent...
Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
