感谢卡开发发大佬的回复,原文是按文献的计算,晶格常数重复不出来的问题,根据大佬的建议和网搜,INCAR改成如下写法。现在补充问题如下:

1. 由于第一次跑VASP,想求各位大佬看看,抛开文献不考虑的话,CeO2块体材料用PBE泛函优化INCAR这样写本身是否合理
2. 文献中只讲了用PBE泛函,没有讲是PBE0还是HSE,是否有共识说,PBE没特别说明就是指PBE0呢?

SYSTEM=bulk-opt-2

ISTART=0
ICHARG=2

ENCUT=415.00
ALGO=N
NELM=100
EDIEF=1E-6
SIGMA=0.1
ISMEAR=0
GGA=PE
LHFCALC=.T.

EDIFFG=-2E-02
NSW=100
IBRION=2
ISIF=3
ISYM=2

ISPIN=2
MAGMOM=12*0.0 #为了之后挖缺陷准备,这里就用了自旋极化计算,材料本身应该是抗磁性的
PREC=Normal #文献中没规定,参考别人的类似计算定了Normal

LDAU=.T.  #供大家参考写一下注释,.T. 表示打开U
LDAUTYPE=2 #加U类型,默认是2
LDAUL=-1 3 #对哪些轨道加U,按照POTCAR中的原子顺序写,1表示p轨道,2表示d轨道,3表示f轨道,-1表示不加U,默认是2)
LDAUU=0.0 4.5 #U值
LDAUJ=0.0 0.0 #文献中如果只写了U值,我理解是可以默认J值=0的

NCORE=4


#(参考了知乎LDA+U讲解

CeO2的块体结构优化,按照文献描述写了输入文件,优化结果晶格参数a=5.40 vs 文献上的 a=5.485,想完全重复文献,没重复出来。想请高手看看哪里出了问题:


文献方法如下:

2. THEORETICAL METHODS AND COMPUTATIONAL
DETAILS
Spin-polarized DFT and supercell periodic models were used within the Vienna ab initio simulation package (VASP, version5.2.12).24−26 We treated explicitly the C (2s, 2p), O (2s, 2p), Ni (3p, 3d, 4s), and Ce (4f, 5s, 5p, 5d, 6s) electrons as valence states expanded in plane-waves with a cutoff energy of 415 eV, whereas the remaining electrons were kept frozen as core states in the projector-augmented wave (PAW) method.27

Total energies and electron densities were computed within the DFT+U approach of Dudarev et al.,28 in which a Hubbard U-like term (Ueff = U − J, that is, the difference between the Coulomb U and exchange J parameters, hereinafter referred to as simply U) is added to the Perdew−Burke−Ernzerhof (PBE) generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) functional.29 We used a value of U = 4.5 eV for Ce atoms, which was calculated self-consistently by Fabris et al.30 using a linear response approach.31

The O-terminated CeO2(111) and Ni(111) surfaces were modeled by (3 × 3) unit cells, containing six atomic layers
separated by at least 18 Å of vacuum. Monkhorst-Pack grids with 2 × 2 × 1 and 4 × 4 × 1 k-point sampling were used for
the CeO2(111) and Ni(111) surfaces, respectively. All of theatoms in the three bottom layers were fixed at their optimized
bulk-truncated (aCeO2 = 5.485 Å; aNi = 3.518 Å) positions during geometry optimization, whereas the rest of atoms were
allowed to fully relax. All of the reaction energies (Ereac) were referenced to C, CO, or CO2 as a gas-phase species for which
Γ-point calculations were performed in at least 12 × 12 × 12 Å3 boxes. A similar computational setup was used for the
calculation of pure gas-phase Ni1, pyramidal Ni4, and rhombohedral Ni4 clusters

乍一看几个与文献结果可能造成不同的点:
1、色散修正文献没提,但是你加了;
2、SCF和结构优化的收敛标准文献给定的部分至少没明确说,且EDIFFG=-0.05标准稍微宽松,如果初始结构比如晶胞参数稍有差异收敛后结果也会小有差别;
3、PREC不确定文献如何设置的,因为这个参数还会额外影响到ENAUG等一堆参数(你需要翻阅手册);
4、动能截断我不确定是否充分,如果不充分可能会造成forces和stresses有噪声,你或文献有可能会收敛到虚假结构的极小点上;
5、LDAU部分的LDAUU等使用(0)或(1)这样的设置至少手册上没提到可以这样写,这种写法是否成立?你可能需要检查OUTCAR是否正确读入这些参数。如果不成立,这意味着DFT+U的设置也与文献有差别。
日常打哑谜&&探寻更多可能。
原理问题不公开讨论,非商业性质讨论欢迎私聊。不做培*,不接代*,不接*发谢谢。
