Hi, The pseudo potential for Ce you're using doesn't include f electrons. Martin said it clearly. I checked and confirmed it. Try to use the other one and see what happens. Regards, Nhan On Sat., 8 Aug. 2020, 10:01 am Stephen Zhang, wrote: > Hi, > > Thank you for your reply. But the source

Hi, Thank you for your reply. But the source of the magnetization should be from the copper atoms in this crystal. After checking the pseudopotentials file, it doesn't seem to be missing any valence electrons. For magnetic calculations what sort of pseudopotentials do you typically use? Thanks

Dear Stephen, Make sure that your pseudopotentials contain all the electrons responsible for the magnetization. For example, based on the file name, I guess your cerium PP lacks the f-electrons. Hope that helps Martin Matas Ph.D. student University of West Bohemia Pátek, Srpen 07, 2020

Hi everyone, Recently for many of my vc-relaxation calculations, the total magnetization of the crystal keeps falling to zero. I know this is not correct since the non-zero magnetization has been verified by others and this fall off to zero has been happening for several compounds I've tried.
