Hello,
I tried to calculate Madelung potential, but no output appeared.
In the past, I succeeded in calculation of Madelung potential in above way.
But I failed today using the latest version of VESTA.
What I did is
Utilities --> Site Potentials and Madelung Energy
Enter 0.9Å for Radius of ionic sphere
Enter 3Å for Reciprocal-space range
I really want to get site potential of my compound.
Does anybody knows how to solve this?
Best,
Daichi
One of the cif file I used for the calculation is as follows;
