Dear Nick,

Thank you for your reply. It is good news. But what is the reason of destroying 
MnO2 structure (Oxygen atoms are opened from the structure). And how can I 
calculate Mulliken charge distribution on the system?

Best regards

Qtot is the valence charge for your system. So everything seems fine!
NetCharge is an additional charge added to your system and thus would change 
Qtot correspondingly.

Dear all,


I solved SCF convergence problem by playing with SCF.Mixingweight and 
SCF.Mixing History. Now I have a problem with Qtot. I defined NetCharge flag to 
0, but Mulliken atomic charges calculated by Siesta are wrong. Qtot in the 
system is 340! Oxygen atoms of water have positive charge of about 6. Zn2+ 
charge is about 11 and K+ charge is 0.1!! My .fdf commands are as follow:

Can anyone guide me how I can solve this problem? Thank you so much.
