Dear developers and users, I am trying to calculate the frequencies (freqs) using Quantum Espresso PHonon calculations as well as using dynamical matrices generated using matdyn.x. I find that there is a unit mismatch in the freqs which gives rise to a magnitude difference. In the first case, I calculate phonon band structure using matdyn.x --> plotband.x. While in the second case I generate dynamical matrices using matdyn.x and then diagonalize the matrices along the kpath and generated exactly same band dispersion except the magnitude on the y-axis (frequency range). Could anyone please tell what is this factor which brings the magnitude mismatch? I am also attaching a figure to compare.
Thank you very much for any help. Sincerely, Shubham
