[QE-users] error in applying magnetic properties of ferritebased materials

  Dear Pietro
Thanks for your answer, we didn't observe an explicit error, only 100
iteration runs, but no convergence; and our structure didn't change at all
and convergence did not happen. what we think is that convergence did not
happen in our system at all, and that is because of not applying *''high
spin'' for Fe* to this atomic system.
as an alternative way, we examine this structure with VASP, and there we
did not observe convergence problem and converged after a while, but the
resulting structure in comparison of experimental data has been changed
incredibly.
I think what can solve our problem is solving convergence problems by
applying high spin for Fe atoms in my structure. But I do not know how to
introduce high spin to have successful convergence.
thanks ahead
Mahsa
