EXTERNAL_PRESSURE {REAL} .. {REAL} | |
Specifies the external pressure (1 value or the full 9 components of the pressure tensor) applied during the cell optimization. | |
This optional keyword cannot be repeated and it expects a list of reals. | |
Default value: 1.00000000E+02 0.00000000E+00 0.00000000E+00 0.00000000E+00 1.00000000E+02 0.00000000E+00 0.00000000E+00 0.00000000E+00 1.00000000E+02 | |
Default unit: [bar] |
KEEP_ANGLES TRUE | |
Keep angles between the cell vectors constant, but allow the lenghts of the cell vectors to change independently. For example, a cubic cell might become orthorhombic, but not triclinic. | |
This optional keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one logical. | |
The lone keyword behaves as a switch to .TRUE. | |
Default value: .FALSE. |
KEEP_SYMMETRY YES | |
Keep the requested initial cell symmetry (e.g. during a cell optimisation). See cell section for how to impose a cell symmetry. | |
This optional keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one logical. | |
The lone keyword behaves as a switch to .TRUE. | |
Default value: .FALSE. |
MAX_DR {REAL} | |
Convergence criterium for the maximum geometry change between the current and the last optimizer iteration. | |
This optional keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one real. | |
Default value: 3.00000000E-03 | |
Default unit: [bohr] |
MAX_FORCE {REAL} | |
Convergence criterium for the maximum force component of the current configuration. | |
This optional keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one real. | |
Default value: 4.50000000E-04 | |
Default unit: [bohr^-1hartree] |
MAX_ITER {INTEGER} | |
Specifies the maximum number of geometry optimization steps. One step might imply several force evaluations for the CG and LBFGS optimizers. | |
This optional keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one integer. | |
Default value: 200 |
OPTIMIZER {BFGS|LBFGS|CG} | |
Specify which method to use to perform a geometry optimization. | |
