8.2. Error and Warning Messages
WARNING: Linear solver residual of ARPACK-INVERSE set too large in multiband quantum solver
Linear solver residual of ARPACK-INVERSE set too large in multiband quantum solver. ARPACK-INV solver uses internally the linear solver on each iteration, therefore the accuracy of ARPACK-INV is limited by accuracy of the linear solver. It is recommended to set the residuals of linear solver to be smaller than residuals of the ARPACK-INV, otherwise this warning is thrown. The residual of the ARPACK-INV can be set by a keyword arpack_inv{ accuracy }. The linear solver residuals can be set by keywords arpack_inv{ linear_solver{ abs_accuracy } } or arpack_inv{ linear_solver{ rel_accuracy } }.
Error: (nodes number of coordinate 1) != (lines number in file)
Simulation *.log file contains the following error
error:(nodes number of coordinate 1) != (lines number in file)
It means that you have defined values at some grid points twice inside the imported file. Check if some points are duplicated in the file that you are trying to import. For example, you should avoid situation as the following:
…
1.0 0.5
1.1 0.5
1.2 0.5
1.2 0.6
1.3 0.6
…
In this case the point 1.2 is defined twice, which is the source of the problem.
nextnano++ exit code: -1073741795
Simulation *.log file contains the following exit code -1073741795 or other big negative number
(nextnano++ exit code: -1073741795)
Most likely you need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable . Choose the corresponding version matching your operation system architecture (most likely X64) from the section Latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version. It’s a typical error when running nextnano++ on Windows Server OS.
It is also possible that your CPU is not suited for nextnano++ executable, i.e., you are using processor from Pentium family, typical on old laptops. You can use nextnano++_Microsoft_32bit_serial.exe, see FAQ of nextnanomat.
Other possibility is that your computer enters sleep mode during the runtime of your simulation. Turn off disable sleep mode on your computer to fix the problem.
nextnano++ exit code: -1
Simulation *.log file contains the following exit code -1
(nextnano++ exit code: -1)
It means that the simulation has been aborted by nextnanomat or by other means.
nextnano++ exit code: 1
Simulation *.log file contains the following exit code 1
(nextnano++ exit code: 1)
It means that there is error in the command line calling the solver.
nextnano++ exit code: 3
Simulation *.log file contains the following exit code 3
(nextnano++ exit code: 3)
