ELPH_SELFEN_CARRIER_PER_CELL = [real array]
 Default: ELPH_SELFEN_CARRIER_PER_CELL = 0.0 
Description: List of additional number of carriers for which to compute the phonon-mediated electron self-energy and transport coefficients.
| Mind: Available as of VASP 6.5.0 | 
Each number of carriers specified in the array is added to the value of NELECT and the chemical potential computed for the list of temperatures specified by ELPH_SELFEN_TEMPS. A positive number adds electrons (electron doping), while a negative one removes (hole doping).
For example, ELPH_SELFEN_CARRIER_PER_CELL = 0.001 0.01 0.1 means that the number of electrons per cell NELECT = 18 will be increased by the specified values which will produce the following table in the Chemical potential calculation section in the OUTCAR file

The number of elements in ELPH_SELFEN_CARRIER_PER_CELL determines the number of columns in the tables above, while ELPH_SELFEN_TEMPS determines the number of rows. Specifying more than one carrier density in ELPH_SELFEN_CARRIER_PER_CELL creates additional electron-phonon accumulators.
Instead of specifying the number of carriers, it is possible to specify an additional carrier density in units of [math]\displaystyle{ {m^{-3}} }[/math] via the ELPH_SELFEN_CARRIER_DEN tag. Alternatively, one can specify the chemical potential and determine the carrier concentration using ELPH_SELFEN_MU.
