Hello Lucas,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. So normally for the MOFs system,
either VASP or CP2K, gama point is usually selected for calculation since
the unit cell has several hundreds of atoms. For the test materials, it
only has the direct band gap.

The xyz coordinate, lattice constants are the same for both VASP and CP2K
tests.

I don't think it is because of  EPS_DEFAULT, EPS_PGF_ORB because they are
in the magnitudes of -14, and -60.

I used the basis set: DZVP and auxiliary basis set (ADMM): a combination of
c-FIT11 and cFIT3, which are the maximum I can afford, or else, the
calculation will run out of memory. I think this might be the case for the
large systems.

Could you please share more about the CUTOFF? You mean the GHT basis set
(400) and plane wave cutoff (60), right? I think my cutoff is reasonable
since I test the convergence for energy but for PBE functional.

I think this will be a very helpful discussion for all.

Thank you,
Jenny
