pw2bgw input (pw2bgw.inp)
pw2bgw
code input format (pw2bgw.inp
)
! Converts the output files produced by pw.x to the input files for BerkeleyGW.
! Note that `pw2bgw.x` is also distributed and automatically compiled within !
! the Quantum ESPRESSO package, it cannot be compiled in the BerkeleyGW code
! alone
!
! You cannot use USPP, PAW, or spinors in a pw.x run for BerkeleyGW.
!
! You cannot use "K_POINTS gamma" in a pw.x run for BerkeleyGW.
! Use "K_POINTS { tpiba | automatic | crystal }" even for the
! Gamma-point calculation.
!
! It is recommended to run a pw.x "bands" calculation with "K_POINTS crystal"
! and a list of k-points produced by kgrid.x, which is a part of BerkeleyGW
! package (see BerkeleyGW documentation for details).
!
! You can also run a pw.x "nscf" calculation instead of "bands", but in this
! case pw.x may generate more k-points than provided in the input file of pw.x.
! If this is the case for your calculation you will get errors in BerkeleyGW.
!
! Examples showing how to run BerkeleyGW on top of Quantum ESPRESSO including
! the input files for pw.x and pw2bgw.x are distributed together with the
! BerkeleyGW package.

! Write wavefunctions in G-space to BerkeleyGW WFN file
wfng_flag = .false.
! Name of BerkeleyGW WFN output file. Not used if wfng_flag = .false.

! Overwrite k-grid parameters in BerkeleyGW WFN file. Set this to .true.
! when writing WFN files, or else the k-grid parameters in the output of pw.x
! will be set to zero.
wfng_kgrid = .false.
! Number of k-points along the b_1, b_2 and b_3 reciprocal lattice vector, as
! in the first line of kgrid.inp. Not used if wfng_kgrid = .false.

wfng_nk3 = 0
! K-grid offset (e.g. 0.0 unshifted, 0.5 shifted by half a grid step) along
! the b_1, b_2 and b_3 reciprocal lattice vectors. Let dk = second line in
! kgrid.inp, dq = third line in kgrid.inp. Then set wfng_dk1 = dk1 + dk1 * dq1.

! Write charge density in G-space to BerkeleyGW RHO file. Only used for

! Index of the lowest band used for calculation of charge density. This is
! needed if one wants to exclude semicore states from charge density used for
! the GPP model in sigma code in BerkeleyGW. Make sure to include the same
! k-points as in scf calculation. Self-consistent charge density is used if
! rhog_nvmin = 0 and rhog_nvmax = 0. Not used if rhog_flag = .false. BEWARE:
! this feature is highly experimental and may not work at all in parallel,
! with pools, with spins, etc.

! Set to .true. to zero out NLCC or to .false. to keep NLCC when computing
! exchange-correlation potential. This flag has no effect for pseudopotentials
