With PBE they normally are too large by a few percent. If it really matters
WC amd PBEsol are often better for lattice parameters, although they are
also slightly more covalent.

Dear all
I try to get the optimized lattice parameters a and c of hexagonal
structure with space group 161 R3c using both of the volume and c/a
optimizations. My obtained results are not comparable (too great) to the
experimental and theoretical data.
Can you show me the procedure of optimization with relaxation, please?
