Superconductivity, lammbda

Post by xiao zhou »

Hello teachers.
Please ask a please question, when using epw core to calculate superconducting properties, the lambda value appears to have a huge oscillation and does not converge what could be the cause? The fit of the energy band near the Fermi surface meets the requirements of the calculation, please guide me. My input file is attached below:

Hi Zhou,

Can you share your plots comparing the spectral functions and lambdas for different convergence tests?

Happy EPWing,
Hari
