[Wien] volume optimisation with Fe2O3

[Chandrika]

Hello,
I had mailed the following a fews days back but have not received any response. Could anyone please help!
I repeat the problem :

I am not able to optimise the structure of Fe2O3. I do not get a minimum with lapw (volumes -8.5 to 9)) as well as lapw with -so (volumes -7 to 4). I used the experimental values for cell parameters so optimum volume ought to be within these ranges. 
Inputs were :

a (A0) = 5.035        c (A0) = 13.72  a =b =90.00        d=120.00

Space group:  167_R-3c

Atom 1: Fe   

 RMT=1.9

No of symmetry operation =12

NN-Dist =3.62088 (default)

Exchange correlation potential: 13-GGA 

Energy to separate core and semi core = -8.00

RMT * Kmax  = 7.5

 k-points= 600 (optimized)

Without Spin - polarization:

 run_lapw -I -i 20 -ec 0.00001 -cc 0.0001 



Non spin-polarized but with spin-orbit interaction:

run_lapw -so -cc 0.0001.

Thank you in anticipation,

Chandrika
