It now tries to guess the core states first and then adds the electronic configuration. I hope this adds flexibility. regards Juerg -------------------------------------------------------------- Juerg Hutter Phone : <a href="tel:+41%2044%20635%2044%2091" value="+41446354491" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">++41 44 635 4491</a> Institut für Chemie C FAX : <a href="tel:+41%2044%20635%2068%2038" value="+41446356838" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">++41 44 635 6838</a> Universität Zürich E-mail: <a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">h...@chem.uzh.ch</a> Winterthurerstrasse 190 CH-8057 Zürich, Switzerland --------------------------------------------------------------- -----<a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">c...@googlegroups.com</a> wrote: ----- To: "cp2k" <<a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">c...@googlegroups.com</a>> From: "Daniele Ongari" Sent by: <a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">c...@googlegroups.com</a> Date: 01/05/2021 06:19PM Subject: Re: [CP2K:14488] Change arrangement of electrons in POTENTIALS file Dear Juerg, thanks for your action. I have another concern. When I modify e.g., Pd from "3 6 9" to "4 6 8", I'm basically expecting to move on valence electron from the D orbital to the S orbital, to have only one orbital partially occupied (D) and make the MAGNETIZATION 2 work. However, what CP2K prints out is the following. I'm concerned with the core "[ 5.00 1.00]" configuration of the D orbital, as it looks like the program assumes some weird configuration for the pseudo. I was expecting indeed to read "[ 5.00 ] 5.00" for Alpha and "[ 5.00 ] 3.00" for Beta. Guess for atomic kind: Pd Electronic structure Total number of core electrons 28.00 Total number of valence electrons 18.00 Total number of electrons 46.00 Multiplicity triplet Alpha Electrons S [ 1.00 1.00] 1.00 1.00 P [ 3.00 3.00] 3.00 D [ 5.00 1.00] 5.00 Beta Electrons S [ 1.00 1.00] 1.00 1.00 P [ 3.00 3.00] 3.00 D [ 5.00 1.00] 3.00 What is your opinion about it? What I want to achieve, at the end, is the corresponding of: &BS &ALPHA NEL 1 1 N 5 4 L 0 3 &BETA NEL 1 -3 N 5 4 L 0 3 starting with the default ELEC_CONF 3 6 9 Thanks for your kind attention, Daniele Il giorno martedì 5 gennaio 2021 alle 17:38:59 UTC+1 jgh ha scritto: Dear Daniele Thank you for pointing this out.

You can change them without any problem. The definition of the potential does not change. Maybe we should have this as an input option. best Juerg -------------------------------------------------------------- Juerg Hutter Phone : <a href="tel:+41%2044%20635%2044%2091" value="+41446354491" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">++41 44 635 4491</a> Institut für Chemie C FAX : <a href="tel:+41%2044%20635%2068%2038" value="+41446356838" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">++41 44 635 6838</a> Universität Zürich E-mail: <a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">h...@chem.uzh.ch</a> Winterthurerstrasse 190 CH-8057 Zürich, Switzerland --------------------------------------------------------------- -----<a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">c...@googlegroups.com</a> wrote: ----- To: "cp2k" <<a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">c...@googlegroups.com</a>> From: "Daniele Ongari" Sent by: <a href data-email-masked rel="nofollow">c...@googlegroups.com</a> Date: 01/04/2021 11:45AM Subject: [CP2K:14465] Change arrangement of electrons in POTENTIALS file Dear all, for some high-throughput calculation on Metal Organic Frameworks I need to specify the MAGNETIZATION in order to impose the highest ferromagnetic state at a given oxidation state. It is an assumption to treat all the metals in a coherent way. The problem I'm facing is that, when the electrons of the potential are arranges such as: - all the orbitals are filled or - more than one orbital is partially filled CP2K fails with the error ******************************************************************************* * ___ * * / \ * * [ABORT] * * \___/ Magnetization value cannot be imposed for this atom type * * | * * O/| * * /| | * * / \ qs_kind_types.F:2790 * ******************************************************************************* because, I think, MAGNETIZATION can not decide which electrons to unpair. I could use the section &BS but it gets too complicate, so the question is: am I allowed to change the original ordering in the POTENTIAL file? To explain better, let's take the elements of the 10th column that lead to failure, Pt and Pd: (row 3) Ni is arranged "4 6 8", and it is fine as magnetization will unpair electrons form the partially occupied d orbitals (row 4) Pd is arranged as "3 6 9" and fails because both s and d orbitals are partially occupied. Am I allowed to modify it as "4 6 8"? (row 5) Pt is arranged as "2 6 10" and fails because all orbitals are fully occupied. Am I allowed to modify it as "4 6 8"? Technically this trick works and the CP2K calculation starts an even converges, but do you see any theoretical problem in doing this? Thanks for your attention.
