scalar relativistic calculation

#1 Post by torehan » Thu Dec 16, 2010 11:56 pm

Hi all,

Is there any particular choice of pseudopotentials for relativistic calculations?

Thanks

no. Relativistic effects are included by setting LSORBIT in vasp. Please have a a look into the online manual on how to set up such a calculation.
Apart from the tags in INCAR, please note that you will need an executable of VASP which is used for non-collinear magnetism (i.e., NONE of the parameters --DNGXhalf, -DNGZhalf,.. must be set in tha makefile)
