Hi

my guess is that you run out of memory. Try a smaller box that
is adjusted to the size of your molecule.
Something like 20x50x20 might work (check!).

Hi,

I already optimized the Ethylene in cp2k and the results are well. But when I do the same for PEDOT as an organic molecule I get "Program received signal SIGBUS: Access to an undefined portion of a memory object." in the error file and "job terminated with error" at the end of my output file. 
I greatly appreciate it if could tell me what I am doing wrong? My files are attached.

Best

Hi Najmeh,

If you want to use all electron basis sets like Gaussian, what you need to change are "BASIS_SET", "POTENTIAL", and "METHOD". BASIS_SET using all electron basis sets, POTENTIAL using "ALL", and METHOD using "GAPW". I think most commonly used all electron basis sets are stored in "EMSL_BASIS_SETS". Of course, you can get other basis sets from "https://www.basissetexchange.org/" by choosing the format as CP2K. 

Some example input files can be found in the cp2k example folder, such as "cp2k/tests/QS/regtest-gapw".

Hongyang

Hi,
Thank you for your quick answer.
I greatly appreciate it if you tell me what other parameters I should consider in the GAPW method for calculating energy levels.

Sincerely,
Najmeh

Hi,

Using GAPW instead of GPW will allow you to use same all-electron basis sets as Gaussian.

Dear experts,

I am performing DFT calculations using the QS method. Also, I did the same using Gaussian, but the results are different. It seems that it is because of the difference in the basis set. How can I remove the plane wave part of the basis set in CP2K?
