Dear all
I want to study H hydrogen uptake in SrTiO3 (STO). i did preliminary
convergence test for STO and added atomic Hydrogen to STO Unit cell and
then carried out variable volume relaxation.* below i attached Xcrysden
view of input file and Output file*. i do not know why the basic structure
is breaking. with this mail i have attached input file for reference. i
request to point wrong usage tags or mis valued tags. any suggestion will
be appreciated .
