Dear all: When i computed the electron-phonon interaction,the a2F(w) was negative but approching to zero,for example: 0.00913 0.00364 3.5E-4 -9.8E-4 -0.00113 -8.4E-4 -5.6E-4 -5.2E-4 -7.5E-4 My question is how much does it effect the electron-phonon coupling constant and Tc.

[Pw_forum] Not converging scf calculation
So i think that pseudopoteneial is not the main reason ,may be your structure is not proper to be calculated ,e,g,the relaxiation is not fully,.My suggestion is that you should perform another fully relaxiation ,and make "mixing-beta" smaller to accelarate the convergence.

your ecut may be too large!and your atomic position may be in wrong array.Besides,the Kpoints is a little smaller,(pbe and pw91)pseudopoteneial is usuarly used .

I tried up to 300 Ry for 'ecut' though, the total energies were around 250 Ry and fluctuated randomly (energies were even positive). I am copying my 'scf.in' file below. Please generously provide any suggestions. The crystal structure is Hexagonal structure with a basis of 6 atoms (I think). I checked a lot of times, but my structure setup could be wrong. I am also copying the addresses where the crystal structure is shown. Please let me know if my structure could be simpler.
