Pseudopotentials

For solid state materials, the VASP 5.4 PBE projector-augmented wave (PAW) pseudopotentials were used to carry out the DFT calculations. In general, the VASP-recommended PAW PBE potentials were adopted except for Li, Eu_3, Yb_3, and W_sv. The full list of pseudopotentials is shown below:
