Dear Wien2k users,
I have a compound orthorhombic (Pnma). I found the energy difference between
the undeformed state and the deformed state using GGA. The energy diffrence
i am getting is in about 0.0035 Rydbergs (~ 3 mRy). This difference seems
right
I did the same calculation using LDA, but the energy difference i am getting
is kinda big , about 0.012 Rydbergs (~12 mRy). The energy difference is
kinda large.
The above observation occurs with the same set of parameters (Rkmax = 7,
Gmax=14) and with 5000 k points.
Could someone tell me if i am doing anything wrong with my LDA calculation.
Do i need to change any of those above mantioned parameters ?
thanks in advance
