[CP2K-user] [CP2K:14726] Re: GTH pseudopotential from CP2K to abinit format

[Krack Matthias (PSI)]

Hi Daniel

The GTH PP psp.par files created by the legacy stand-alone GTH PP generator code are converted to ABINIT, CP2K, and CPMD format using this code:

Betreff: [CP2K:14726] Re: GTH pseudopotential from CP2K to abinit format

Dear Fabian,
yes, but the question is that the PP's I want to translate from CP2K to abinit are *not* any of those in the library, but instead some PPs that a coworker created for a functional that is not there in that list. The thing is then to know how to find those missing parameters that are present in the abinit format but not in the CP2K one.
I understand that the 'mmax'' parameter is always 2001 for all elements and functionals, but I don't know how to compute the k parameter/s that are present in the abinit files... (and the abinit documentation does not clarify this).
Thanks!
D.

Dear Daniel,

You can download the pseudo potentials in the Abinit format (among others) here: https://www.cp2k.org/static/potentials/

Cheers,
Fabian

Dear all,

I am interested in performing some calculations with Abinit employing the same GTH pseudopotentials I am using now in CP2K. These GTH pseudos are different from those provided with CP2K and thus I have not the option of downloading them from the 'GTH pseudos' library where these are in different formats. I naively assumed I could simply compare both formats and then rewrite my GTH's to Abinit format,  but when comparing the same pseudo of the library in both formats, I see that the Abinit one contains a couple of parameters that are not present in the CP2K format, e.g. for O it would be:

O GTH-PBE-q6
2 4
0.24455430 2 -16.66721480 2.48731132
2
0.22095592 1 18.33745811
0.21133247 0

in CP2K format versus

Goedecker pseudopotential for O
8 6 070301 zatom,zion,pspdat
10 11 1 2 2001 0 pspcod,pspxc,lmax,lloc,mmax,r2well
0.24455430 2 -16.66721480 2.48731132 rloc nloc c1 c2
2 nnonloc
0.22095592 1 18.33745811 rs ns hs11
0.21133247 1 0.00000000 rp np hp11
             0.00755927 kp11

for Abinit. So, in this case the Abinit pseudo contains a parameter 'mmax' in the second line and another parameter 'kp11' in the last line, which are not present in the CP2K one. Can these be straightforwardly derived from any GTH pseudo in CP2K format to write directly the Abinit one?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel
