-<!-- ===== Introduction ===== +At the end of the input file:
-In this tutorial, we are going to show the reader how to perform a +
-simple static self-consistent Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory +
-energy and force calculation on a system using ''QUICKSTEP''. +
- +
-We will use face centred cubic bulk Si, with 8 atoms in a cubic unit +
-cell as an example. The example files are contained in {{:static_calculation.tgz|static_calculation.tgz}}. The calculations were carried out with +
-''CP2K'' version 2.4. +
- +
-The reader should note that the integration grid settings used in +
-the example calculations have already chosen to be sufficient for +
-the given accuracy. A [[converging_cutoff|separate tutorial]] is available to show how to +
-achieve this. +
- +
- +
-===== Input Files ===== +
-We first look at the input files required for this calculation. The +
-necessary input files are: +
- +
-  * ''Si_bulk8.inp'': the main input file for the calculation, which defines the system and the job parameters +
-  * ''BASIS_SET'': file containing parameters for the basis sets that can be used by ''CP2K'' for this calculation +
-  * ''POTENTIAL'': file containing parameters for the pseudopotentials that can be used by ''CP2K'' for this calculation +
- +
-A list of basis set and pseudopotential files may be found in +
-''cp2k/data/'' that comes with a ''cp2k'' source release. These +
-should cover most of the commonly used elements. The user will, +
-however, need to produce their own main input file for a given +
-calculation. +
- +
-Let us look at the main input: ''Si_bulk8.inp'' in detail. The name of +
-this file can be arbitrary, so is the file extension. The input file +
-is structured into ordered blocks and keywords, the order of which +
-are unimportant. Each input block is referred to as a "section" in +
-this tutorial, and some sections are "subsections" of other +
-sections. Full definitions of the input file format and keywords is +
-available via the [[http://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/index.html|''CP2K'' input reference manual]]. +

-===== Running the Calculation ===== +
-To run the calculation, the reader needs to have a working ''CP2K'' +
-package compiled, and with the path to its binaries in the system +
-''PATH''. The files ''Si_bulk8.inp'', ''BASIS_SET'' and ''GTH_POTENTIAL'' +
-should be in the same working directory. In this example, we will +
-use the MPI version of ''CP2K''. Type command: +
-<code> +
-mpirun -n 2 cp2k.popt -o Si_bulk8.out Si_bulk8.inp & +
-</code> +
-in the working directory to run ''CP2K'' in parallel with 2 MPI +
-processes in the background. The ''-o'' option redirects the ''CP2K'' +
-output to file ''Si_bulk8.out''. Note that the ''-o'' option //appends// +
-output of successive runs to ''Si_bulk8.out'', so if the reader wants +
-to start completely from afresh, they must delete ''Si_bulk8.out'' +
-before running a new calculation. +
- +
- +
-===== Obtaining the Results ===== +
-After the job has finished, we should obtain the following files: +
- +
-  * ''Si_bulk8.out'' +
-  * ''Si_bulk8-RESTART.wfn'' +
-  * ''Si_bulk8-RESTART.wfn.bak-1'' +
- +
-The file ''Si_bulk8.out'' contains the main output of the +
-job. ''Si_bulk8-RESTART.wfn'' is the final Kohn-Sham wavefunctions +
-from the calculation. ''Si_bulk8-RESTART.wfn.bak-<n>'' records the +
-Kohn-Sham wavefunctions obtained from the ''<n>''-th previous SCF +
-step; in this case, ''Si_bulk8-RESTART.wfn.bak-1'' contains the +
-wavefunctions obtained from the last SCF step. Should the reader +
-want to start a new calculation from the previous calculated +
-wavefunctions, they need to change the ''SCF_GUESS'' keyword in ''SCF'' +
-subsection of ''FORCE_EVAL'' section to ''RESTART'': +
-<code cp2k> +
-SCF_GUESS RESTART +
-</code> +
-provided that the new calculation shares the same ''PROJECT_NAME'' as +
-the one that generated the wavefunctions. Otherwise, we would need +
-to rename the restart wavefunction files to correspond to the +
-project name of the new calculation. +
- +
-We now look at the main ''CP2K'' output in more detail. +

-The above shows the results on final energies and forces.  One +
-should always check if the total number of electrons calculated from +
-the final electron density, in this case 31.9999999939, is correct. +
- +
-The results show that the force on the atoms are almost zero. This +
-means the system is more or less relaxed, and its geometry is close +
-to its optimal at ground state. +
- +
- +
-===== Adding Smearing ===== +
-In the example so far, we have not used any smearing on electron +
-occupation. This is fine for system with a large band gap. However, +
-for metals or systems with a small gap, this may cause the +
-calculation to be unstable, and the self-consistency loop may never +
-converge, due to the discontinuity in the electron occupation +
-function. +
- +
-To add smearing, we need to add the subsection [[http://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/SCF/SMEAR.html|''SMEAR'']] inside +
-subsection ''SCF'': +
- +
-<code cp2k> +
-&SMEAR ON +
-  METHOD FERMI_DIRAC +
-  ELECTRONIC_TEMPERATURE [K] 300 +
-&END SMEAR +
-</code> +
- +
-This tells ''QUICKSTEP'' to use a smearing function for the electron +
-occupation. In this example, we use the Fermi-Dirac smearing +
-function, with the electron temperature being set to 300 K. Note +
-that, in ''CP2K'', one can explicitly define the unit of a given input +
-value by using a unit enclosed in square bracket, such as "''[K]''", +
-before the value. +
- +
-This is not all, since smearing may lead to occupation of molecular +
-orbitals in the conduction band, we must tell ''CP2K'' to include +
-extra, empty, molecular orbitals into the calculation, which +
-otherwise would be omitted (for reducing computational cost). To do +
-this, we need to add the keyword [[http://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/SCF.html#desc_ADDED_MOS|''ADDED_MOS'']] in the ''SCF'' +
-subsection: +
- +
-<code cp2k> +
-ADDED_MOS 10 +
-</code> +
- +
-In this example, we have asked ''CP2K'' to not to omit 10 of the +
-lowest empty molecular orbitals in the calculation. It should be +
-noted that given a chosen basis set, there is a maximum number of +
-molecular orbitals, i.e. the number of eigenvectors of the +
-Hamiltonian, one can generate. In theory, the maximum should be the +
-rank of the Hamiltonian generated in the calculation. +
- +
-In the output of the calculation using smearing, we first notice +
-that: +
- +
-<code> +
-Number of electrons:                                                         32 +
-Number of occupied orbitals:                                                 16 +
-Number of molecular orbitals:                                                26 +
- +
-Number of orbital functions:                                                104 +
-Number of independent orbital functions:                                    104 +
-</code> +
- +
-unlike in the previous case with no smearing, now 26 molecular +
-orbitals have been used during the calculation. There are a total of +
-104 basis functions ("atom centred orbitals" spanned by Cartesian +
-Gaussians) used in the calculation for the given basis set, so 26 is +
-well within the limit of the calculation. +
- +
