Dear all
I am calculating the FM and AFM properties of CdCr2O4 with the 4 atoms of
Cr in fourteen-atom CdCr2O4 unit cell.In order to run the scf calculation
for FM in a cubic structure I have a few problems if anyone can help me: 1.
how can I find the actual number of starting_magnetization? 2. how can I
identify the different Cr (1 and 2) in the ATOMIC_POSITION as i have 4 Cr?
(below is the scf code of my compound and fallowing that the NiO magnetic
example that I am fallowing)
