Default: ELPH_DRIVER = el 

Description: Chooses which driver to use for electron-phonon calculations.


This is a high-level tag that chooses what to compute during an electron-phonon calculation. Currently, the following drivers are supported:

ELPH_DRIVER = el
Computes the phonon-induced electron self-energy.
ELPH_DRIVER = mels
Computes the electron-phonon matrix elements and writes them to the vaspelph.h5 file.
