Sorry i found the total energ for paw potential is about -212, so there's no problem here. I just don't know how to get the enough accuracy as the literature. Or is there any way that can make the converge faster? If the case is a copper chain in a carbon nanotube, should I still set a single cu atom here with large unit cell? Or should I set up a copper chain and do the structure optimization? I am not quite sure because in one unit cell there's only one cu in cnt(6,6) . Thank you for somebody who could clarify this. Best regards.
