I am trying to calculate the phonon of hBN-AA but it gives negative frequency. Can anyone check my input files and suggest where should i modify to improve my results---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------&CONTROL calculation = 'scf' prefix = 'hBN_AA' pseudo_dir = '/home/suhail/Downloads/qe-6.8/pseudo', outdir = './tmp'/&SYSTEM ibrav = 0 nat = 4 ntyp = 2 ecutwfc = 70 ecutrho = 560 nbnd = 16 occupations = 'fixed' input_dft = 'PBE' vdw_corr = 'DFT-D3' assume_isolated = '2D'/&ELECTRONS diagonalization = 'david' mixing_beta = 0.70 conv_thr = 1.0d-10 electron_maxstep = 200/ATOMIC_SPECIESB 10.811 B.pbe-n-rrkjus_psl.1.0.0.UPFN 14.007 N.pbe-n-rrkjus_psl.1.0.0.UPFCELL_PARAMETERS angstrom 2.504000 0.000000 0.000000 1.252000 2.168528 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 23.440000
