I hope you know that forces with hybrid-DFT are not supported.

So if you use MSR1a (optimizing Positions) and -hf  I can well imagine that you get overlapping spheres.

Go back to your original struct file. You can optimize Positions ONLY in PBE (or DFT+U or EECE).

You MUST NOT use   -hf -min  switches at the same time.

Dear Prof. Marks,

                     I think there is a huge misunderstanding. I am patient enough to see the simulation converging. However, using MSR1a I am getting "error in mixer, check RMT & model". Is it due to that the RMT's are too close during the optimization of both density & atomic coordinates?.. Should I eradicate the error by reducing the RMT more, say by 8%?

Looking forward to hear you soon.

with regards,

    1. Most of your questions have already been answered.

    2. I doubt that any of your calculations are converged. You are
    being very impatient. Run more iterations.

    3. Some of your questions such as comparing hybrid fractions of
    0.05 & 0.25 are equivalent to comparing skiing and eating samosa.

    4. Stop fiddling in the hope that your calculations will match
    expt. What is the point?

    Do not use Pratt
    DO NOT use Pratt
    DO NOT USE PRATT

        Dear Wien2k users,
                                         In some calculations, I have
        noticed that while MSR1 is failing to achieve convergence we
        are getting fine convergence by using PRATT. However, I am
        reaching the final convergence by using MSR1. Is this process
        correct?

        I have another query, to change the scheme from MSR1 to PRATT
        or PRATT to MSR1 should I need to stop the calculation & edit
        case.inm or we can change it during the running of SCF cycle.

        Looking forward to hearing from you.

        with regards,
