I can not obtain the n/p-type transport of graphene at 1E15 cm-2

Post by guodonglin »

Dear Developer

For n/p-type transport of graphene, i set "ncarrier = -1E15" or "ncarrier = 1E15" in epw.in file, but the final concentration is about 1E13 cm-2. This problem has puzzled me for a long time. I don 't know how to solve this problem.

Hi,

Can you try increasing the fine-grid (nkf and nqf)? If that does not work can you attach your input and output files?

Best regards,
Sabya.
