This page provides a list of relevant INCAR tags and some relevant practical details regarding convergence, setting up and running relevant calculations in the howto section.

Summary of relevant INCAR tags

This section contains a summary of all the INCAR tags that are currently implemented for performing monopole, dipole and quadrupole corrections using VASP. Please see the relevant pages of the respective tags for more detailed information.

Dimensionality of the system Does the system have net charge? Does the system have a net dipole moment? Relevant INCAR tags for monopole/dipole corrections
Any No No None
3D Yes No NELECT, LMONO, EPSILON

3D Yes Yes NELECT, DIPOL, IDIPOL, EPSILON
2D Yes No NELECT
2D No Yes IDIPOL, LDIPOL, DIPOL
2D Yes Yes NELECT
1D Yes No NELECT
