<p>Dear Duc-Long,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>thanks for your response. I do not think they have the same
coordinate. The "y" coordinate of one is
<b>0.10168</b> while that of the 2nd is <b>1.10168, </b> that
is a difference of 1 ang.</p>

<p>Dear all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am trying to perform some calculations on Black
Phosphorus (BP). To get the atomic positions I used
the Crystal Builder, where I have chosen the lattice
type to be base centered orthorhombic. The "builder"
produced a set of cartesian and fractional (in terms
of the primitive cell vectors) . I have used the
fractional ones and I have also used ibrav=0 with the
CELL_PARAMETERS defined as in the builder (a/2, -b/2,
0), (a/2, b/2,0), (0,0,c). However I have got the
following error:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<div> %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%</div>
<div> from check_atoms : error # 1</div>
<div> atoms # 1 and # 4 overlap!</div>
<div> %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%</div>
<div><br>
</div>
Doing the same calculation with ibrav=8 and using the
coordinates produced by the Crystal builder for a simple
orthorhombic does not produce any errors. Can anyone
please tell me what is wrong with atoms (1) and (4). Is
BP simple or base centered orthorhombic..Where can I
find the coorect atomic position of bulk BP? The scf
input is below:
