Description: compute the vibrational frequencies of CO@Ni(111) (on top).


  • INCAR
  SYSTEM= CO on Ni111 - frequencies

 general:
   ENMAX  = 400
   ISMEAR =    2  ; SIGMA = 0.2
   ALGO   = Fast
   EDIFF  = 1E-6

 dynamic:
   NSW=100
   POTIM = 0.04
   IBRION = 5
   NFREE  = 2

Try to change the selective dynamics tag such that displacements in x and y direction are allowed as well for CO (note that the selective dynamics flags always refer to cartesian coordinates), i.e,
