Why EPW performs Bloch2wane stopping task?

[dsc]

Why does EPW stop the task after calculating the irreducible q point, it should carry out Bloch2wane, without any error reported?
before interruption as follows:
Writing epmatq on .epb files

The .epb files have been correctly written

Band disentanglement is used: nbndsub = 30
Construct the Wigner-Seitz cell using Wannier centers and atomic positions
Number of WS vectors for electrons 317
Number of WS vectors for phonons 165
Number of WS vectors for electron-phonon 230
Maximum number of cores for efficient parallelization 1840

Dear dsc:

Could you try

Code: Select all

etf_mem = 1

instead of

Code: Select all

etf_mem = 0

?

Sincerely,

H. Lee

[dsc]

Thank you for your response.

This is a very effective solution，it worked well. I know etf_mem = 0 is stored into memory, I checked the memory usage during the calculation, which has a lot of unused memory, so I assume that memory is not the bottleneck for errors and did not use etf_mem = 1.

Bests,
