<div dir="ltr">Since C and N are neighbors in the periodic table, you could put a "virtual" atom at the site, with charge Z = 6.5. That would at least give you the right electron count for the system and preserve the system symmetry. The downside is that a pseudopotential for "Cargen" or "Nitrobon" probably doesn't exist, so you'd have to generate it yourself. I think VASP is able to handle this somehow, but I've never tried it.<div><br></div><div>Another alternative is to generate a supercell, randomly populate that site with C and N atoms, and average over configurations. Look up various articles by Alex Zunger et al. (<a href="http://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.65.353">http://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.65.353</a>, to start) on Special Quasirandom Structures for some hints on how to do this efficiently. The downside of this is that you'll need a fair number of structures, and you'll lose the hexagonal symmetry in the individual calculations.</div><div><br></div><div>AFAIK, there aren't any really good solutions for this problem with the current generation of DFT codes. At one time there was some work with the Coherent Potential Approximation and KKR (see <a href="http://journals.aps.org/prb/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevB.67.115109">http://journals.aps.org/prb/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevB.67.115109</a>, e.g.), but I don't think any modern KKR codes are easily available, much less KKR+CPA.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Oct 7, 2016 at 7:50 AM, Krishnaiah Kallamadi <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:krishnsustain@gmail.com" target="_blank">krishnsustain@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">As per my knowledge,<div>espresso can't deal with above cif file.

you have to account for a joint 0.5N+0.5C site at this position. I
