How to compile the code to run the pseudopotential mixer The code is included in the Siesta distribution, within the Util/VCA directory Assuming we are in the directory where the Siesta sources are stored, simply It will use the same arch. make file as for the compilation of Siesta (no need to copy it again to the Util/VCA directory) mixps fractional This will generate two executable files: (program to mix pseudopotentials) (program that multiplies the strength of a pseudopotential by a given fraction)

Some notes on the mixed pseudopotentials Once Siesta reads the new mixed pseudopotential, it proceeds as usual, and generates: - the local part of the pseudopotential - the Kleinman-Bylander projectors - the basis set Those quantities are not a true mix of the corresponding quantities of the individual atoms. The basis set is generated by Siesta using the mixed pseudopotential (no mixing of the basis set has been implemented). To see how to generate a basis set for a mixed atom, see the Tutorial “How to run with a finite constraint electric displacement”
