Compare the chemical potential of two system Date: 2010/01/26 23:06 Name: Dinh Loc Duong   <mambom1902@yahoo.com> Dear Prof. Ozaki and Openmx user, I calculated the doping effect of chlorine atom on CNT. I get the chemical potential of CNT and CNT_Cl is -0.15625 Hatree and -0.1806 Hatree. Can I compare these values together? Can I say the chemical potential shifts down amount of 0.24 hatree? I don't know the absolute value of two system have the same standard or not. Another thing is that what is the value of potential of vacuum? Are they the same in two calculation system (CNT and CNT_Cl)? I appreciate all your help. Sincerely, Dinh Loc Duong

Also, the vacuum level is usually calculated from the Hartree potential at the center of vaccum in the unit cell. Best regards, TO
