Wrong qpoint for 2D phosphorene

[Vahid]

Dear EPW Users,

I am attempting to calculate the electron scattering rates for phosphorene (PRB91,235419,2015). My epw.in and the nscf.in are given below. The 52 qpoints were generated using a self-consistent run on a 10x10x1 grid with zero shifts in order to get the weights. The code crashes complaining of wrong qpoint for #13 but this point was generated by the phonon run as well:

===================================================================
irreducible q point # 13
===================================================================

Symmetries of small group of q: 1

Number of q in the star = 1
List of q in the star:
1 0.200000000 0.000000000 0.000000000
In addition there is the -q list:
1 -0.200000000 0.000000000 0.000000000

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Error in routine readmat_shuffle2 (1):
wrong qpoint
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

stopping ...

I would appreciate any comments on why this qpoint is wrong.

Thank you,
Vahid

Dear Vahid,

Did you generate the q-points in the same way when you did the phonon calculations to extract the dynamical matrices and deformation potential?

Best,
Roxana

Dear Roxana,

I did the phonon run using the following input:

BP
&inputph
tr2_ph = 1.0d-12
prefix = 'bp'
amass(1) = 30.97
ldisp=.true.
nq1=10, nq2=10, nq3=1
outdir = './'
fildyn = 'bp.dyn'
fildvscf = 'dvscf'
/

The output of the phonon run gives the list of the points but not their weights so in order to get the weights, I did a separate self-consistent run an a 10x10x1 grid.

Thank you,
Vahid

[roxana]

Dear Vahid,

You need to make sure that you provide the exact same list of q-points as during the phonon calculations.

If everything match, it should work.

Best,
Roxana

[Vahid]

I see it now. The points generated by the phonon code are:

These are in different order from the one generated by the self-consistent run. All I have to do is rearrange the order of the phonon list in the epw.in to match that of the phonon run.

Great. Many thanks,

Vahid
