DFT without atoms

#1 Post by efang » Fri Aug 10, 2012 1:54 am

Is it possible to run VASP without atoms, i.e. have it just spit out the parametrization of the homogeneous electron gas? If so, can it do this with Fermi-Dirac smearing? Thanks.

Please take a look at this thread, for example. It seems like there is a special POTCAR that allows you to perform such type of calculations.
