Hi Andres

Yes, you can specify a list of orbitals by their M values for the chosen L value. By default, the orbitals are filled one by one with the available electrons. With SMEAR the electronic density is smeared in the selected orbitals for a given number of SCF steps (MAX_SCF) or until a certain SCF convergence threshold (EPS_SCF) is reached. Different orbitals, M values, can be selected for spin up and spin down.

Subject: [CP2K:20877] Enforcing an specific occupation of d orbitals
Dear Forum,

I am currently , trying to provide an starting electronic configuration to enforce the initial occupation of electrons in Fe.

I came accross with the option
ENFORCE_OCCUPATION for DFT+U

I was wondering if is possible to provide an initial occupation for the d orbitals in Fe
using the option


ORBITALS: integer= 0*<https://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS/KIND/DFT_PLUS_U/ENFORCE_OCCUPATION.html#CP2K_INPUT.FORCE_EVAL.SUBSYS.KIND.DFT_PLUS_U.ENFORCE_OCCUPATION.ORBITALS>

Aliases: M

Usage: ORBITALS 0 +1 -1





For example if i would like a particular occupation like:

spin up      dz2=  1 dxz=  1, dyz=  1, dx2-y2=  1 dxy=  0,

spin down  dz2= 0 dxz=  0, dyz=  1, dx2-y2=  1 dxy=  0,



Like the control there is quantum espresso, starting_ns_eigenvalue



Is there any way to impose such starting occupation?



Best
