Task Document Changes#
Merge atomate2 VASP task document with the one in emmet. The changes to the atomate2 schemas are:
PsuedoPotentialSummary -> Potcar
labels -> symbols
AnalysisSymmary -> AnalysisDoc
delta_volume_as_percent -> delta_volume_percent
InputSummary -> InputDoc
OutputSummary -> OutputDoc
density added
Status -> TaskState
TaskDocument -> TaskDoc
task_type added
Status -> TaskState
VASP input set updates#
The VASP input sets have been reconfigured based on user feedback.
The auto_kspacing
option has been removed and KSPACING is no longer used in the
atomate2 input sets by default. We have returned to using reciprocal_density
as in
atomate1. These changes mean the k-point mesh is no longer dependent on the precise
band gap of the system. Instead, there are now two k-points settings, one for insulators
and one for metals. This should remove issues when changing the functional from
PBEsol -> HSE, in which the band gap increases but the k-point mesh would be expected
to stay the same.
Two new options have been added to the BaseVaspInputSetGenerator
:
auto_metal_kpoints
: If true and the system is metallic, try and usereciprocal_density_metal
instead ofreciprocal_density
for metallic systems.auto_ismear
: If true, the values for ISMEAR and SIGMA will be set automatically depending on the bandgap of the system. If the bandgap is not known (e.g., there is no previous VASP directory) then ISMEAR=0 and SIGMA=0.2; if the bandgap is zero (a metallic system) then ISMEAR=2 and SIGMA=0.2; if the system is an insulator, then ISMEAR=-5 (tetrahedron smearing).
