Dear Dario
Thank you very much for your support.It works well and some of the jobs
have been finished successfully.
But one thing in my mind. In my whole calculations , I used PBE with
ultrasoft pseudopotentials. But to do "scf" calculations with PBE0 "hybrid"
functional I have to use "Norm conserving pseudopotential". So how can I
compare these two results.
Please suggest any idea.....
Thank you again
