Dear Sohail Ahmad,

I don't know what is the origin of the "too many g-vectors"
error but I see several errors in your input.

- you want to calculate a 2-dimensional system, so why do
you need k-points in the z direction? You should actually see
no dispersion at all in this direction if you correctly setup your
system

- as mentioned in the dipole example for PP and in all papers
using such a correction, the dipole needs to be in the vacuum
region, i.e., there should be no interaction with the system
and the dipole. Your system starts at the origin and the dipole
is from 0.9 till 1.1 (i.e. 0.1) - it is not only too close but even
within the system

- if your system does not converge within - lets say - 300
electronic steps you have a real problem; 900 makes no sense.

Kind regards

Thomas

I am trying to relax the bilayer of PdSe2 after introducing electric field,,\ everytime i am getting the following error . I am using QE 6.0. Its perfectly running on other machine..
