[gpaw-users] DFT-D3

Dear Eric and Jens,
Thanks for the replies.
What I want to do is to have the wave function of a system for which the
van der Waals interaction is taken into account in the calculations so that
I could calculate DOS and PDOS on molecular orbitals. Therefore, I'll need
to have .gpw file.
I tried ased3 and it turned out that it gives me the corrected energy not
what I want.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions on this issue.
I'd appreciate your time and consideration.
