[CP2K-user] [CP2K:12623] SCF Methods

[Hepsibahpriyadarshini C]

Hi,
I have carried out cell optimisation for Ag2O with OT method. I am not able
to obtain convergence with diagonalisation method. Can I take the final
co-ordinates generated using OT and feed it as  input for optimising the
geometry. Can 2 different SCF procedures be employed.

Thank you!
