Dear All,
I want to perform B3LYP calculationd on on surfaces as well as bulk materials. I read so many different information on internet so i am confused. I have two questions

1- Can i use normal potentials for these calculations or do i need another special potentials?

2- For bulk materials and surfaces do i need to use special kpoints? Are these OK for bulk : 6x6x6 and for surface :6x6x1

many thanks for help

1. Cf. the thread:

2. 6x6x6 and 6x6x1 are OK
