8.2. Tutorial¶
In this tutorial, we downfold Sr2CuO3
into single orbital 1D Hubbard model,
and simulate that model with HPhi/mVMC.
We use QuantumESPRESSO for the DFT calculation.
Input files are served in samples/Wannier/Sr2CuO3 directory.
In actual studies, the input files etc. of each solver should be modified for more high accuracy calculation. Please refer to the manuals of each solver for the details of the input files.
8.2.1. SCF calculation of charge density¶
First, we perform the SCF calculation of the charge density. The input file is as follows:
&CONTROL
calculation = 'scf'
pseudo_dir = '../pseudo'
prefix = 'sr2cuo3'
/
&SYSTEM
ibrav = 0
nat = 6
ntyp = 3
ecutwfc = 30.000000
ecutrho = 240.000000
occupations = 'tetrahedra_opt'
/
&ELECTRONS
mixing_beta = 0.3

The pseudopotential (UPF file) are downloaded from
The SG15 Optimized Norm-Conserving Vanderbilt (ONCV) pseudopotentials.
Put the pseudopotential files into ../pseudo directory.
http://www.quantum-simulation.org/potentials/sg15_oncv/sg15_oncv_upf_2015-10-07.tar.gz
We use the program pw.x in QuantumESPRESSO as follows.
$ pw.x -in scf.in

After finishing calculations, the files are outputted in dir-model folder.
The format of these files is Wannier90 format and the data such as the hopping integrals are written.
(If you use the old version of RESPACK (20190226), the folder name is dir-mvmc .)
8.2.5. Quantum lattice mode for HPhi/mVMC¶
Using standard mode of HPhi/mVMC, the calculation will be done by reading the files in dir-model folder.
First, the files in dir-model directory should be moved to the current directry.
Then, the calculation will be started by using standard mode.
For example, in HPhi, the calculation will be dobe by typing the following command:
model = "Hubbard"
lattice = "wannier90"
a0w = 8
a0l = 0
a0h = 8
a1w = 0
a1l = 1
a1h = 0
a2w = 1
a2l = 0
a2h = 0
method = "TPQ"
nelec = 8
exct = 1
cutoff_t = 0.5
cutoff_u = 1.0

$ cp ./dir-model/* .
