Dear,<BR>
 <BR>
I've done the DOS and PDOS calculations of a semiconductor system.<BR>
 <BR>
I find the pdos of some atoms is negative in the some energy range and the corresponding total DOS is Zero or positive.<BR>
 <BR>
My system is not spin polarized.<BR>
 <BR>
I want to know if this result is reasonable.<BR>
 <BR>
If not, which parameter needs to adjust?<BR>
 <BR>
Thanks in advance!<BR>
 <BR>
