[CP2K-user] [CP2K:15057] How do you create an electric field ?

[hut... at chem.uzh.ch]

Hi

you can define a ghost atom with a charge and no basis functions.
This way you can define point charges or smeared charges by using
a local pseudopotential.
However, this will most likely not work for tight-binding Hamiltonians.

BTW, there are several methods for applying local or periodic e-fields.

Hello,All

I want to create an electric field by applying an electric charge to some of the atoms in the model.But I did not find the relevant keywords, whether there are these functions.

Best wishes,  
Evelyn
