[CP2K:10376] doubt regarding cell and geometry optimization

Hi

CELL_OPT includes both optimisation of the atomic positions and the lattice parameters.

Hey,

By cell parameters, I meant the lattice parameters a , b, c and angles. Initializing RUN_TYPE as CELL_OPT, can I do geometry and cell optimization simultaneously ?

Hi

You have to select CELL_OPT instead of GEO_OPT as RUN_TYPE, if you want to perform a cell optimization (though I do not understand what you mean with “cell parameters of a molecule”).
Further hint: 1.0E-7 is too large as EPS_DEFAULT. I suggest 1.0E-12.

Hi all,
I am new to cp2k and have been trying to simultaneously optimize geometry as well as cell parameters of the molecule. I found the output geometry coordinates but not the optimized cell parameters. Can anyone tell me where I can find it or is something wrong with my code ?

Thank you !
