NEB interpolation

#1 Post by ccccc » Mon Jan 13, 2014 4:57 pm

Dear all
For a NEB calculation, i used the script nebmake.pl but i think it didnt give me the right interpolated geometries. Because these geometries are quite far away from the POSCAR1 and POSCAR2.

What else can i use to interpolate the first and final geometries of a reaction?

Thanks in advance

This would be a better question for this forum:

If you post your POSCAR files and interpolation there, we'll check the script.

Also, as a quick check, make sure that your atoms are listed in the same order in the two files.
