Happy New Year... In this video, we will see how to perform COHP (Crystal Orbital Hamilton Population) calculation using VASP and LOBSTER to analyze chemical bonding in solid-state materials. The tutorial covers the complete workflow, including: 1. Running a VASP calculation with the required settings 2. Generating input files for LOBSTER 3. Understanding bonding, antibonding, and non-bonding interactions 4. Interpreting COHP plots This method is widely used to study bond strength, chemical bonding, and electronic structure in crystalline materials using DFT. 🔹 Software used: VASP, LOBSTER 🔹 Concepts covered: COHP, ICOHP, bonding analysis, electronic structure 🔹 Level: Beginner to Intermediate If you find this video helpful, don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to Computational Physicist for more tutorials on DFT, VASP, and computational materials science.
