sgroup does NOT add atoms. It will only split or combine positions (and
eventually even reduce the unit cell). It must come from supercell.
PS: I hope you have used MSR1a method for relaxation ? MSR1 does not
move atoms. Are the final forces all small ?

Yes, I have the relax the atomic positions using msr1 method.
I my 6ql slab I have one extra Te atom that generates from sgroup. Is there
any problem with that? Or it just created for symmetry purposes??

Hi,
a) Your vacuum is very large, which can create problems and cost a lot
of cpu time. 20 Ang are more than enough.
b) As mentioned before: this is a doped SC, so most likely never a gap
Is it intended ?
d) Did you relax the slab in PBE ? Just the bulk coordinates are
probably nonsense.
I did not tried yet (lmbj without SOC).
OK let me try with the same directory where I have converged my pbe-GGA
calculation and let you know.

It seems that this calculation was never going to converge. Try to run
lmBJ-SOC just after GGA-PBE-SOC (and save_lapw) in the same directory.
Is lmBJ without SOC also showing such problems?

The results from the last 20 iterations (for lmbj calculation)
Analysis of parameter:

Could you show how the total energy and distance charge evolve during
the iterations of the lmBJ-SOC calculation (grep for :ENE and DIS in
case.scf)?
Before using lmBJ-SOC, did you succeed to converge a calculation on your
system using another method, like GGA-PBE or lmBJ without SOC? If yes,
Others will probably give you suggestions about converging mBJ. Some deeper
comments.
The most common reason that calculations behave badly is user error.
Sometimes this is doing the initialization wrong, often it is creating an
inappropriate model. Just because one can use x supercell or related
Dear experts, I am doing an scf calculation taking lmbj potential. My system is a slab of 6ql with a vacuum of 40 ang along c-axix. Whenever I try to run the scf calculation including SOC, after 999 iteration the scf is still not converged. I have analyzed the scf file, it shows the fluctuating nat
