The first problem is the convergence of Ag(111) surface. I built a 4*4*3 Ag(111) slab. The system could hardly converge when implicit solvation model was used. While in gas phase, it converged successfully. Are there some tricks to make it converge?<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <div> <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> 2. Another problem is more confusing. The solvation energy of H3O+ differs a lot from the experimental value as well as the values calculated by other solvation models such as VASPsol. I've tried to change the parameters in SCCS sections according to the article [Self-consistent continuum solvation (SCCS): The case of charged systems. J. Chem. Phys. 139, 214110 (2013) ], and try to change the Poisson solver, but I still couldn't obtain a reasonable result. Why is there such a huge difference? Did I misuse SCCS section? <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> I'm new to CP2K, and I didn't know whether I set somethings wrong in the input file or I missed some subtle but important details. I'll appreciate it if someone can give me some advice on these problems, since solvation is vital in predicting the energy of H3O+ and the interaction of metal surface and adsorbates. <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> The input file is attached below.<o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> Thanks a lot!<o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> Wiko<o:p></o:p> </div> </blockquote> </div> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cp2k" group.
