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 ? Am 24.07.2023 um 10:30 schrieb Burhan

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?? On Mon, 24 Jul, 2023, 1:56 pm Peter Blaha, wrote: > Hi, > a) Your vacuum is very large, whi

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.

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? On 24.07.2023 10:04, Burhan Ahmed wrote: The results from the last 20 iterations (for lmbj calculation)

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
