- Hi,
The data in the cube files are output in 4 decimal digits. I wonder that this may cause such a noisy visualization in some situations. Please give us a minimum input file, which produces such a cube file, so that we can figure out the cause.
Regards,
TO

- Hi,
I have tested your input file, and found the reason why we have such a noisy picture.
The system is found to be non-magnetic, and the spin density at each point is around 10^{-16} or less. So, the values are beyond significant digits of double precision. So, the output data in the sden.cube file do not have enough accuray, resulting in such a noisy picture.
And to discuss such a small difference may be physically and numerically meaningless.
Regards,
TO

- Dear professor Ozaki,
Thanks, but this doesn't happen for all non-magnetic systems. and I think I have seen this problem also in some magnetic systems. anyway, I will keep this in my mind and if I have more examples, I will post here.
Best regards, Maedeh
