Dear paritosh_modak:

I think that I already identified it; under some situations, ibin in https://gitlab.com/QEF/q-e/-/blob/7b583 ... .f90#L2048 can be 0, leading to the segmentation fault.

I found this issue when using the underconverged computation parameters, but it seems that it is not your case.

This will be fixed in the next version of EPW, but if you want to try to fix it temporarily at the moment, one of the things you can try is to revert the merge request at https://gitlab.com/QEF/q-e/-/commit/7b5 ... 7c813c5b08 .

Lastly, regarding the use of EPW for 2D materials, please check the page at viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1311 .

Sincerely,

H. Lee

Thank you very much. I will try this.

Dear Prof. Lee,
I have tried by reverting those merged lines. It works fine for the first temps. But in the next run, when I am giving
imag_read=.true.,
nstemp=16
and temps=5.0 80.0
during solving for temps=10 K
It is giving the same error at the same place as earlier.
