These examples cover most programs and features of the PW package.
See comments in file "environment_variables" in the top QE directory
for instructions on how to run these examples.

LIST AND CONTENT OF THE EXAMPLES
For each example, more detailed information is provided by the README file
contained in the corresponding directory.
example01:
This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate the total energy
and the band structure of four simple systems: Si, Al, Cu, Ni.
example02:
This example shows how to use pw.x to compute the equilibrium
geometry of a simple molecule, CO, and of an Al (001) slab.
In the latter case the relaxation is performed in two ways:
1) using the quasi-Newton BFGS algorithm
2) using a damped dynamics algorithm.
example03:
This example shows how to use pw.x to perform molecular dynamics
for 2- and 8-atom cells of Si starting with compressed bonds along
(111).
example04:
This example shows how to calculate the polarization via Berry
Phase in PBTiO3 (contributed by the Vanderbilt Group in Rutgers
University).
example05:
This example shows how to calculate the total energy of an
isolated atom in a supercell with fixed occupations.
Two examples: LDA energy of Al and sigma-GGA energy of O.
example06:
This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate the total energy
and the band structure of four simple systems in the non-collinear
case: Fe, Cu, Ni, O.
example07:
This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate the total energy
and the band structure of fcc-Pt with a fully relativistic US-PP
which includes spin-orbit effects.
example08:
This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate the total energy of FeO
using LDA+U approximation.
example09:
This example shows how to use pw.x to perform TPSS metaGGA calculations
for C4H6
example10:
This example shows how to use pw.x to perform electronic structure
calculations in the presence of a finite electric field described
through the modern theory of the polarization. The example shows how to
calculate the dielectric constant of Si and the effective charges of AlAs.
example11:
This example tests pw.x with PAW in the noncollinear, spin-orbit case.
It calculates the band structure of ferromagnetic bcc-Fe.
example12:
This example tests pw.x for the noncollinear/spin-orbit case with
DFT+U and Ultrasoft pseudopotentials.
example13:
This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate the total energy
of LiCoO2 using DFT+U+V with ultrasoft pseudopotentials.
Additional feature-specific examples:
EXX_example:
Use experimental implementation of Hybrid Functional to compute
total energy of Silicon using different values for nq and for
calculation of binding energy of o2,co,n2 from calculations in a
12 au cubic box and gamma sampling.
ESM_example:
This example shows how to use the Effective Screening Medium Method (ESM)
in pw.x to calculate the total energy, charge density, force, and
potential of a polarized or charged medium. Calculations are for a water
molecule and an Al(111) electrode.
VCSexample:
This example shows how to use pw.x to optimize crystal structures at two
pressures for As.
cluster_example:
This example shows how to use pw.x to calculate propeties of
isolated systems decoupling periodic images by using
Martyna-Tuckerman approach with truncated coulomb interaction.
vdwDF_example:
This example shows how to use the vdw-DF functional in pw.x.
