Phonon dispersion curves
Ref. 3.8 PWSCF calculation. Ultrasoft pseudopotential Ag.pbe-d-rrkjus.UPF has been used, with a kinetic energy cutoff ecutwfc = 40.0 Ry. Kpoint selection: 11x11x11. Energy minimization of fcc Ag yields a lattice parameter of a = 4.160 Å. For ab initio phonon calculations shown above, the lattice parameter is set to be 4.160 Å.
