size of the runing file of the superconducting gap

Post by ilias-serifi »

Hi dear experts
I work on superconducting properties of a 2D material in order to calculate the superconducting gap

i lunched the script but it's take more than 300Go on the pc is it normal to have this size or the calculation ara wrong ?

Hi ilias-serifi,

The file size depends on your fine k/q meshes. I am not sure how dense meshes are you using. For example, for my 12 atoms system with k=56*32*16 and q=28*16*8 meshes I got ~250 Gb files.

Hello sir Harry

Concerning the meshes i use for k 32x20x1 and q 16x10x1
for the superconducting meshes i use nkf 160x100x1
nqf 160x100x1

another question
if i want to increase my iteration progress which's the command to use

Code: Select all

 Nr k-points within the Fermi shell =     16000 out of     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        100/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        200/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        300/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        400/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        500/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        600/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        700/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        800/     16000
     Progression iq (fine) =        900/     16000

i want an iteration by 1000

Hi ilias-serifi,

1. For your fine k/q meshes it is normal to have ~300 Gb files.
2. The flag to change the step in "Progression iq (fine) = " is "restart_freq" which is default 100.

Hello again dear users and experts
I'm confronting a new error in my calculation of superconducting gap


Code: Select all

    Finish reading .freq file 

                  Fermi level (eV) =    -1.0778270134E+00
     DOS(states/spin/eV/Unit Cell) =     9.9884365393E-01
            Electron smearing (eV) =     5.0000000000E-03
                 Fermi window (eV) =     1.5000000000E+01
     Nr k-points within the Fermi shell =      5000 out of      5000
           8 bands within the Fermi window


     Finish reading .egnv file


     Max nr of q-points =      5000


     Finish reading .ikmap files

Hi,

It looks like the problem occurred before reading 'ephmat' files. Is this the restart job? or continue after writing the 'ephmat' files? If you provide other information with inputes, I can say more about this.

Best,
Hari Paudyal
