[Pw_forum] Error: fft order too large

Hello everyone,

         I am calculating a surface slab model of MoS2. My parameter works
well with 5~11 layers. But with 13 layers ( 39 atoms total ), it gives

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%

 

 

     from  good_fft_order  : error #      2241

      fft order too large

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%

 

Decreasing Ecutwfc/Ecutrho can eliminate these problem. But these
Ecutwfc/Ecutrho is determined by convergence test of bulk lattice parameter
test, so I would like to find a way to solve this problem without decreasing
Ecutwfc/Ecutrho. Is there any suggestion ?

 

My input file is like this: ( all 5~11layers input files are just same
except atoms related part )

  restart_mode = 'from_scratch'

  tstress = .true.
