Hi Community,
I’ve been working on Ni for over a month, but despite numerous
trial-and-error attempts, I’m still facing persistent issues with SCF
convergence. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to pinpoint the root cause
of the problem in my calculations.
I’ve tried various configurations, including large and small slabs, with
and without dispersion, but the issue persists. As this is an important
part of our ongoing work, I would greatly appreciate any insights,
suggestions, or guidance that might help me resolve it.
I am also attaching the latest input, CIF and output file for reference.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best,
Lakshmi
