Hydrogen pseudopotential

Reference Konfiguration: $s^1~p^0$


TITEL  =H:
   LULTRA =        T    use ultrasoft PP ?

   RCORE  =      0.65   local potential
   RWIGS  =    1.000    wigner-seitz radius

   Description
     l     E      TYP  RCUT    TYP  RCUT
     0   .000      7  0.800    23  1.250

     1  -.250      7  0.800    23  1.250
s and p are US, local potential is the truncated AE-potential. Only one projector is sufficient for the unimportant p-PP.

Comment: Some people consider H-pseudopotentials as a nonsense. Nevertheless this PP gives excellent description of the bond length for the H$_2$ dimer, and for H on C surfaces, and it requires only 200 eV.
