ELPH_SELFEN_MU_RANGE = [real array] 

Description: List of the range of chemical potentials (in eV) at which to compute the phonon-mediated electron self-energy and transport coefficients.

Mind: Available as of VASP 6.5.0

The chemical potential can be set as a shift with respect to the Fermi level [math]\displaystyle{ E_F }[/math] as alternative to ELPH_SELFEN_MU. A range of chemical potentials can be defined using ELPH_SELFEN_MU_RANGE = A B C , where:

  • A is the lower limit of the chemical potential range.
  • B is the upper limit of the chemical potential range.
  • C is the number of steps to take between the two.

For example, ELPH_SELFEN_MU_RANGE = -1.0 1.0 101 would create a list of 101 points around the Fermi level between [math]\displaystyle{ E_F - 1.0 }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ E_F + 1.0 }[/math].
