Re^3: How to setup calculations for a twisted nanoribbon or bilayer graphene?

Dear Alex,
Thanks for the information. Do I need to preoptimize the sample? or should I just change the distance between graphene sheets and oprimize using DFTD?
Could you roughly estimate the cpu time difference between dft and dftd?

Kind Regards,

>>>Somebody having experience with these samples, please suggest me how to go about these. Any tips related to Firefly regarding these samples will be welcomed.
