Recommended starting point. Always verify convergence for the exact material and property you are calculating.

METHOD

A recommendation you can inspect.

SemperKite does not make universal rankings. The recommended starting point changes with the selected protocol, and every source stays visible.

Match

Element, PBE functional, source release, and Quantum ESPRESSO UPF compatibility.

Apply a visible rule

SemperKite maps Relaxation to Efficiency and the other listed calculation types to Precision. This is our workflow rule—not an SSSP requirement—and the alternative stays available.

Explain

QE cutoffs, expanded library name, checksum, and the reason for the recommendation.
