The SCF doesnot converge, using diagonalization

[Zhendong Guo]

Dear Everyone
    I am  trying to calculate the eigenvalue of LUMO and HOMO for 
kappa-Al2O3. The system owns the periodic boundary condition and includes 
80 atoms.
I tried using the following in the section of DFT to output the eigenvalues 
of MOs. 
"&PRINT
        &MO
         OCCNUMS
         EIGVALS
        &END MO
        
        &MO_CUBES
         NHOMO 5
         NLUMO 5
        &END MO_CUBES" 

>From the tutorials of Cp2K, I notice:
Section MO 
<http://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/index.html#CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/PRINT/MO.html> 

*Controls the printing of the molecular orbitals.Note that this is only 
functional with diagonalization based methods, in particular not with OT*So, 
I turn "OT" off in my input file and use the following setting in the 
section of SCF   
      SCF_GUESS                ATOMIC 
      EPS_SCF                     1.0E-7
      MAX_SCF                     300  
      MAX_ITER_LUMOS       10000      
      EPS_LUMOS                1.0E-7
      &DIAGONALIZATION      ON
        ALGORITHM STANDARD
      &END DIAGONALIZATION
      &MIXING  T
        METHOD BROYDEN_MIXING
        ALPHA 0.4
        NBROYDEN 8


*      &END MIXING*But, I found the SCF calculation didnot converge after 
300 steps when I checked the output files.

*So, Could you kindly give me some advise to make the SCF calculation 
converge correctly?*







*The input file and the xyz file for the system are also attached, please 
help me check them when you are free.zhendong*
