<div>Sorry for confuse you , After checking the input and output file , I found that I also did a LiVO2 crystal calcualtion with the same problem, the input file I posted is for LiNiO2 and the output file I posted is for LiVO2 , here is the complete input and output file from the same calcualtion<br>

<div>I also changed lambda from 1 to 5 and the final magnetic moment changed from 1.55 to 1.50 </div>
<div>so the parameter lambda seems have no impact on the final magnetic moment, there should be something wrong with my calcualtion but I can't spot this error. </div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">Dear Yumin Qian,<br><br> There's something strange in this output. I think that atom number 5 should be a Ni<br>
one, since you were interested in the magnetization of that species, but then, why is the<br>charge around that atom only about 2.5? Ni should have 10 electrons in valence, so I would<br>expect to get a number around 10 for the charge (unless the atom goes in a very ionized<br>
state, but that seems highly unprobable to me).<br>Are you sure PPs and all the rest is OK?<br><font color="#888888"><br><br>GS<br></font>
