• How make easily a NEB:

It is necessary have the Initial State (IS) and the Final State (FS), and the vtstscripts from Austin group (http://theory.cm.utexas.edu/vtsttools/scripts/):

Initially, copy the CONTCAR of IS and FS to the NEB's directory:

          #> cp ../dir_initial_position/CONTCAR POS1
          #> cp ../dir_final_position/CONTCAR POS2

          #> nebmake.pl POS1 POS2 #IMAGES

          #> nebmovie.pl
