Daer all
I start the ferromagnetic calculation for the slab of MnAs containing 7 layer,but after finishing the run , the spin polarization of Mn atoms in surface rotate in 180 and make the layer antiferromagnetic ,are this feasible?
Here is my input file:

                      prefix = 'MnAs-surface1' ,
