Dear Rusla, I think that the problem comes from the keyword "number of species". As you used 2 differents basis for your Si atom you haved in fact 3 differents species and not 2 (DZP Si and SZ Si are different species for SIESTA). I think you need to put in you input "NumberOfSpecies 3" and see if there is a change.
Hope that will help you David Cornil UMH Belgium ________________________________ De : Руслан Жачук <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> À : SIESTA-L@listserv.uam.es Envoyé le : Mercredi, 26 Novembre 2008, 14h00mn 25s Objet : [SIESTA-L] PAO.BasisSizes problem Dear SIESTA users, I have problem with specifying different basis sets for different atoms. The manual is not clear in this respect. Could you please show me the correct input for fdf file? Kind regards Ruslan P.S. Below are list of files in folder, error message and my fdf file.
