Dear Sir P. Bala
Thank you for your suggestion. I am attaching here the case.scf1 (up &
down) files as I dont have much idea what to do. I have used Emax = 4.5 and
what maximum limit I can use for Emax? Other parameters I have used are
RMT*Kmax = 8, Gmax. = 16 & 18, K-points = 300.
Kind Regards
M. Sajjad
