LIBMBD_ALPHA = [real (array)]
Description: LIBMBD_ALPHA defines the free-atom polarizability (bohr) for each atoms defined in the POSCAR file within the Tkatchenko-Scheffler and many-body methods as implemented in the library libMBD of many-body dispersion methods[1][2][3].
LIBMBD_ALPHA allows to choose the value of the damping parameter in the many-body methods as implemented in the library libMBD of many-body dispersion methods[1][2][3]. The value is internally passed to the libMBD input mbd_a described at the page [4].
| Mind: LIBMBD_MBD_A can be set only if LIBMBD_XC=none. |
| Important: This feature is available from VASP.6.5.0 onwards that needs to be compiled with -DLIBMBD. |
libMBD is a separate library package that has to be downloaded[2] and compiled before VASP is compiled with the corresponding precompiler options and links to the libraries.
