Variable: ecutwfc
Type: REAL
Status: REQUIRED

+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: ecutrho
Type: REAL
Default: 4 * ecutwfc
Description: kinetic energy cutoff (Ry) for charge density and potential
For norm-conserving pseudopotential you should stick to the
default value, you can reduce it by a little but it will
introduce noise especially on forces and stress.
If there are ultrasoft PP, a larger value than the default is
often desirable (ecutrho = 8 to 12 times ecutwfc, typically).
PAW datasets can often be used at 4*ecutwfc, but it depends
on the shape of augmentation charge: testing is mandatory.
The use of gradient-corrected functional, especially in cells
with vacuum, or for pseudopotential without non-linear core
correction, usually requires an higher values of ecutrho
to be accurately converged.

Type: INTEGER
Default: 1
Description: number of electronic steps per ionic step.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: remove_rigid_rot
Type: LOGICAL
Default: .FALSE.
Description: This keyword is useful when simulating the dynamics and/or the
thermodynamics of an isolated system. If set to true the total
torque of the internal forces is set to zero by adding new forces
that compensate the spurious interaction with the periodic
images. This allows for the use of smaller supercells.
BEWARE: since the potential energy is no longer consistent with
the forces (it still contains the spurious interaction with the
repeated images), the total energy is not conserved anymore.
However the dynamical and thermodynamical properties should be
in closer agreement with those of an isolated system.
Also the final energy of a structural relaxation will be higher,
but the relaxation itself should be faster.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: ion_temperature
Type: CHARACTER
Default: 'not_controlled'
Description: 'nose' : control ionic temperature using Nose-Hoover
thermostat see parameters "fnosep", "tempw",

( fnosep = X Y Z etc. ) If only first is set, the defaults for
the others will be same.

Default: 100.D0
Description: tolerance (in Kelvin) of the rescaling. When ionic temperature
differs from "tempw" more than "tolp" apply rescaling.
meaningful only with "ion_temperature" = 'rescaling'
or with "ion_velocities"='change_step', where it specifies
the old timestep
+--------------------------------------------------------------------

Default: 1
Description: number of thermostats in the Nose-Hoover chain

+--------------------------------------------------------------------

Default: 0
Description: type of the "massive" Nose-Hoover chain thermostat
nhptyp=1 uses a NH chain per each atomic type
nhptyp=2 uses a NH chain per atom, this one is useful
for extremely rapid equipartitioning (equilibration is a
different beast)
nhptyp=3 together with nhgrp allows fine grained thermostat
control
NOTE: if using more than 1 thermostat per system there will
be a common thermostat added on top of them all, to disable
this common thermostat specify nhptyp=-X instead of nhptyp=X
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: nhgrp(i), i=1,ntyp
Type: INTEGER
Default: 0
Description: specifies which thermostat group to use for given atomic type
when >0 assigns all the atoms in this type to thermostat
labeled nhgrp(i), when =0 each atom in the type gets its own
thermostat. Finally, when <0, then this atomic type will have
temperature "not controlled". Example: HCOOLi, with types H (1), C(2), O(3), Li(4);
setting nhgrp={2 2 0 -1} will add a common thermostat for both H & C,
one thermostat per each O (2 in total), and a non-updated thermostat
for Li which will effectively make temperature for Li "not controlled"
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: fnhscl(i), i=1,ntyp
Type: REAL
Default: (Nat_{total}-1)/Nat_{total}
Description: these are the scaling factors to be used together with nhptyp=3 and nhgrp(i)
in order to take care of possible reduction in the degrees of freedom due to
constraints. Suppose that with the previous example HCOOLi, C-H bond is
constrained. Then, these 2 atoms will have 5 degrees of freedom in total instead
of 6, and one can set fnhscl={5/6 5/6 1. 1.}. This way the target kinetic energy
for H&C will become 6(kT/2)*5/6 = 5(kT/2). This option is to be used for
simulations with many constraints, such as rigid water with something else in there
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: ndega
Type: INTEGER
Default: 0
Description: number of degrees of freedom used for temperature calculation
ndega <= 0 sets the number of degrees of freedom to

fort.27: Used with calwf=3 and 4, contains some general runtime
information from ddyn, the subroutine that actually
does the localization of the orbitals.
fort.28: Used only if efield=.TRUE. , contains the polarization

Also, The center of mass is fixed during the Molecular Dynamics.

Nota Bene 1: For calwf = 5, wffort is not used. The
Wannier/Wave(function) coefficients are written to unit 22
and the corresponding g-vectors (basis vectors) are
written to unit 21. This option gives the g-vecs and
their coeffs. in reciprocal space, and the coeffs. are
complex. You will have to convert them to real space

Description: The minimum step size to take in the SD/CG direction
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: maxwfdt
Type: REAL
Default: 0.3D0
Description: The maximum step size to take in the SD/CG direction
The code calculates an optimum step size, but that may be
either too small (takes forever to converge) or too large
(code goes crazy) . This option keeps the step size between
wfdt and maxwfdt. In my experience 0.1 and 0.5 work quite
well. (but don't blame me if it doesn't work for you)
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: nit
Type: INTEGER
Default: 10
Description: Number of iterations to do for Wannier convergence.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: nsd
Type: INTEGER
Default: 10
Description: Out of a total of NIT iterations, NSD will be Steepest-Descent
and ( nit - nsd ) will be Conjugate-Gradient.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: wf_q
Type: REAL
Default: 1500.D0
Description: Fictitious mass of the A matrix used for obtaining
maximally localized Wannier functions. The unitary
transformation matrix U is written as exp(A) where
A is a anti-hermitian matrix. The Damped-Dynamics is performed
in terms of the A matrix, and then U is computed from A.
Usually a value between 1500 and 2500 works fine, but should
be tested.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: wf_friction
Type: REAL
Default: 0.3D0
Description: Damping coefficient for Damped-Dynamics.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: nsteps
Type: INTEGER
Default: 20
Description: Number of Damped-Dynamics steps to be performed per CP
iteration.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: tolw
Type: REAL
Default: 1.D-8
Description: Convergence criterion for localization.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: adapt
Type: LOGICAL
Default: .true.
Description: Whether to adapt the damping parameter dynamically.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: calwf
Type: INTEGER
Default: 3
Description: Wannier Function Options, can be 1,2,3,4,5
1. Output the Wannier function density, nwf and wffort
are used for this option. see below.
2. Output the Overlap matrix O_i,j=<w_i|exp{iGr}|w_j>. O is
written to unit 38. For details on how O is constructed,
see below.
3. Perform nsteps of Wannier dynamics per CP iteration, the
orbitals are now Wannier Functions, not Kohn-Sham orbitals.
This is a Unitary transformation of the occupied subspace
and does not leave the CP Lagrangian invariant. Expectation
values remain the same. So you will **NOT** have a constant
of motion during the run. Don't freak out, its normal.
4. This option starts for the KS states and does 1 CP iteration
and nsteps of Damped-Dynamics to generate maximally
localized wannier functions. Its useful when you have the
converged KS groundstate and want to get to the converged
Wannier function groundstate in 1 CP Iteration.
5. This option is similar to calwf 1, except that the output is
the Wannier function/wavefunction, and not the orbital
density. See nwf below.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: nwf
Type: INTEGER
Default: 0
Description: This option is used with calwf 1 and calwf 5. with calwf=1,
it tells the code how many Orbital densities are to be
output. With calwf=5, set this to 1(i.e calwf=5 only writes
one state during one run. so if you want 10 states, you have
to run the code 10 times). With calwf=1, you can print many
orbital densities in a single run.
See also the PLOT_WANNIER card for specifying the states to
be printed.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: wffort
Type: INTEGER
Default: 40
Description: This tells the code where to dump the orbital densities. Used
only with CALWF=1. for e.g. if you want to print 2 orbital
densities, set calwf=1, nwf=2 and wffort to an appropriate
number (e.g. 40) then the first orbital density will be
output to fort.40, the second to fort.41 and so on. Note that
in the current implementation, the following units are used
21,22,24,25,26,27,28,38,39,77,78 and whatever you define as
ndr and ndw. so use number other than these.
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
Variable: writev
Type: LOGICAL
Default: .false.
Description: Output the charge density (g-space) and the list of g-vectors
This is useful if you want to reconstruct the electrostatic
potential using the Poisson equation. If .TRUE. then the
code will output the g-space charge density and the list
if G-vectors, and STOP.
Charge density is written to : CH_DEN_G_PARA.ispin (1 or 2
depending on the number of spin types) or CH_DEN_G_SERL.ispin
depending on if the code is being run in parallel or serial
G-vectors are written to G_PARA or G_SERL.

This distance determines the radius of the Poisson sphere centered at
a given MLWF center, and should be large enough to cover
the majority of the MLWF charge density.

See: exx_use_cube_domain
+--------------------------------------------------------------------

Description: Radial cutoff distance (in bohr) to compute the pair EXX energy.
This distance determines the radius of the Poisson sphere centered at
the midpoint of two overlapping MLWFs, and should be
large enough to cover the majority of the MLWF product density.
This parameter can generally be chosen as smaller than exx_ps_rcut_self.
See J. Chem. Theory Comput. 16, 3757–3785 (2020).

DESCRIPTION OF ITEMS:

Card's flags: { bohr | angstrom }
Description: bohr / angstrom: reference cell parameters in bohr radii / angstrom.
To mimic a constant effective planewave kinetic energy (ecfixed) during a
variable-cell calculation, the specified reference cell has to be large enough
such that the individual cell vector lengths of the fluctuating cell do not
exceed the corresponding reference lattice vector lengths during the entire
calculation. The cost of the calculation will increase with the increasing
size of the reference cell. The user must test for the proper reference cell
parameters.
The reference cell parameters should be used in conjunction with q2sigma,
qcutz, and ecfixed. See q2sigma for more information about mimicking constant
effective planewave kinetic energy (ecfixed) during variable-cell calculations.
The reference cell parameters should be chosen as an isotropic scaling of the
initial cell of the system. This means that the reference cell should have
the same shape as the initial simulatoin cell. The reference cell parameters should
NOT be changed throughout a given simulatoin. Typically, 2%-10% scaling of
the unit cell vectors are sufficient. However, the cell fluctuations depend on
the system and the thermodynamic conditions. So again user must test for the proper
choice of reference cell parameters.
