dielectric constant with ionic contribution
Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 8:40 am
Hi!
I have tried to calculate the static dielectric constant e(0) with ionic contribution for rutile, using
LEPSILON = .TRUE.
LPEAD = .TRUE.
IBRION = 8
following the advice of the manual. Having no experience with this whatsoever, I specified NSW = 30. VASP finished after writing 30 F =... in the OSZICAR file (see below), and gave me some (reasonably good) values for e(0) in the OUTCAR file.
Now I have two questions:
1) How do I know, whether this is the convergent end result or not?
2) If it is not, can I just continue (with ISTART = 1) where it has been left off?
Thanks for any help.
