-Hartree potential that may serve as an input for the PPM can be produced by various DFT codes. A slab calculations are necessary for a creation of the Hartree potential. The calculated system should be in the lower part of the unit cell, but z coordinates of the top-most layer has to be above zero! At least 10 Ǎ of vacuum above a slab geometry has to be used. 15-20 Ă of Vacuum are recommended. Here we show examples how to produce a hartree potential, for couple of DFT codes: 
- 
-== Fireball == 
- 
-A __fireball.in__ for creation of an __fftpot.xsf__ file with Hartree potential with using a McWEDA functional should look like: 
- 
-  &OPTION 
-  basisfile =     '​answer.bas'​ 
-  lvsfile =       '​input.lvs'​ 
-  kptpreference = '​input.kpts'​ 
-  nstepf ​    = 1 
-  icluster ​  = 0 
-  itdse      = 0 
-  iqout      = 1 
-  ifixcharge = 1     ! 0 if you don't have pre-calculated atomic charges in CHARGES 
-  iquench ​   = -1 
-  &END 
-  ​ 
-  &OUTPUT 
-  iwrtxsf = 1   ! print the important file 
-  iwrtden = 1   ! print the important file 
-  &END 
-  ​ 
-  &MESH 
-  ifixg0 = 1            !  
-  g0     = 0.0,​0.0,​0.0 ​ ! do not shift the position of atoms in fftpot.xsf with respect to the answer.bas 
-  Ecut = 300.0d0 ​       ! not really necessary, but gives grid sampling approximately 100 pm. 
-  &END 
- 
-A __fireball.in__ file for calculations with XC on a grid computations:​ 
- 
-  &OPTION 
-  basisfile ​    = '​answer.bas'​ 
-  lvsfile ​      = '​input.lvs'​ 
-  kptpreference = '​samplek.kpts'​ 
-  nstepf ​    = 1 
-  icluster ​  = 0 
-  itdse      = 0 
-  iqout      = 1 
-  ifixcharge = 0 
-  dt         = 0.5 
-  iquench ​   = -1 
-  iks        = 1 
-  imcweda ​   = 0 
-  idogs      = 0 
-  bmix       = 0.05 
-  &END 
-  ​ 
-  &OUTPUT 
-  iwrtxsf = 1   ! print the important file 
-  iwrtden = 1   ! print the important file 
-  &END 
-  ​ 
-  &MESH 
-  ifixg0 = 1            !  
-  g0     = 0.0,​0.0,​0.0 ​ ! do not shift the position of atoms in fftpot.xsf with respect to the answer.bas 
-  Ecut = 300.0d0 ​       ! not really necessary, but gives grid sampling approximately 100 pm. 
-  &END 
- 
-== VASP  == 
- 
-[[http://​www.vasp.at/​]] 
- 
-A __LOCPOT__ file containing the Hartree potential is produced during standart VASP run. One just have to care about a dipole correction (if necessary). The __LOCPOT__ file has to be convert into an *.xsf file, eg. via [[http://​theory.chm.tu-dresden.de/​~jk/​software.html]] 
- 
-== FHI-AIMS == 
- 
- 
-[[http://​aimsclub.fhi-berlin.mpg.de/​]] 
- 
-Add following sequention into your __control.in__ file: 
- 
-  output cube hartree_potential 
-    cube origin lx ly lz 
- 
-where lx, ly & lz are shifting the output cube file so the written grid would be at the beginning of the Cartesian system. PPM can now read geometry from a cube file created by FHI-AIMS and shift it according to the shift of the cube cell; however for good run of the PPM calculation at least lz has to be properly specified. l = length of lattice vector / 2 - 0.05; But proper shift is used only, when the lattice vector follows some Cartesian direction.
