Dear CP2K users,

I want to calculate the IR spectra of a organic molecule adsorbed on a Au(111) slab. I optimized the structure with a tight SCF convergence and tight force threshold. The problem occurs when I run the VIBRATIONAL_ANALYSIS calculation (using &PROPERTIES&LINRES&POLAR PERIODIC_DIPOLE_OPERATOR TRUE) and I can read at the end of the output:
*******************************************************************************

The input is the same as the other runs that I used, so I am wondering how could I overcome this problem?

Thanks in advanced.

Best regards,

Hi

this error is triggered when two arrays have different dimensions.
Without more information, I can only guess that you are trying to
get dipole moments for a periodic system while using smearing of
electronic states. This combination of options is not possible.

regards
JH
