<div dir="auto">Hi,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I had a similar problem too with lda calculations. You want to confirm that your pseudopotential files have all the electrons necessary for non zero magnetic moment. When I was getting zero magnetic moment, it was due to the fact that a few of my pseudopotential files were missing electrons from lower energy orbitals that were likely responsible for the magnetic order in the material.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Good luck,</div><div dir="auto">Stephen</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Sep 4, 2020, 10:27 PM Poonam Kaushik <<a href="mailto:poonamkaushik40@gmail.com">poonamkaushik40@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Dear Experts,<div>I have one general question.
