Dear Prof. Blah and wien2k users,

The values of charge density are increasing (diverging), if i am increasing
the k-point mesh size. There are two cases i want to present here.

*1. converged case.*

In this case, I have taken a super cell of 2x2x1 made from a 225 space
group which contains 64 number of atoms. The composition is
Fe2VAl0.94Sn0.06 (Sn doped at Al-site of Fe2VAl alloy). For a 10
irreducible k-points (2x2x5), the calculations are converged by using a
mixxer value of 0.1 (case.inM)and TEMP 0.001 instead of TETRA 0.000 for
Brillouin zone sampling (case.2inc). But, after convergence, i want to
calculate the transport properties of system using Boltztrap code and for
that i need to have a dense k-mesh as suggested by the earlier reports.
Hence, i increased the k-mesh size/ irreducible number of k-points to 41
(3x3x9). But, unfortunately, i have got an increase of charge density
approximately 2 orders greater for the first cycle of run. Hence, i was
waited to get the convergence and allowed to run the calculation further.
But, till now i have not get any charge convergence and it is going to be
diverge further as shown in below.

*2. Non-converged case.*

In this case, i am trying to run the calculations for the composition
Fe2VAl0.25Sn0.75 (Sn doped at Al-site of Fe2VAl alloy) where Sn
concentration is more now. In this case, i have used primitive cell made
from 225 space group that contains 16 number of atoms. We run the scf
calculations after volume as well as force minimized structures with 32
irreducible BZ k-points (4x4x4). To achieve the convergence, we tried
several options as given below.

1. used mixxer values as 0.05 and 0.1, after saving previous calculation by
save_lapw

2. used TETRA initially, then later modified to TEMP 0.001 in case.2inc
when charges are not converging after saving previous calculations.

3. Initially, we used 32 k-points (4x4x4), but later we used 256
ir-reducable BZ k-points (8x8x8)and re-run the calculations, after saving
the initial ones.


Finally, here, it is noted that increasing the number of irreducible BZ
k-points leads to enhancement of charge density rather than converging it
according to the  discussions in the earlier mailing list. Hence, i need
the possible reason and solution to get a charge convergence in my system.

=======================================================


Note : Experimentally, i have also prepared these alloys, and got a
segregation of pure Sn (extra phase) for higher compositions (Fe2VAl1-xSnx,
x>0.2). Hence, formation of pure L21 phase is not achieved in the
experimental case for higher compositions, while L21 space group have been
used for the calculation in the above case where x = 0.75.

So, the divergence in the charge density for higher k-mesh size may
conclude that it is not possible to get pure phase of L21 structure for
this composition (Fe2VAl0.25Sn0.75). kindly, send me the comments on this
observation.


thanking you and looking forward to your helpful suggestions.
