--------------------------------------------------
but It seems the job can be finished successfully, does" the density differ problem" affect the result ? if so,how far does the error go ?
Not alwalys " WARNING: grid for Broyden might be to small
" would appear in the OUTCAR! I have try to decrease BMIX or increase AMIX, no use!
Here INCAR follows:
General
SYSTEM = hcp 16.1 optimization
PREC = High
ISTART = 0
ICHARG = 0

Electronic minimization
#ENCUT = 400
#ENAUG = 613.6
ISPIN = 2
ISIF = 3
NELM = 50
NELMIN = 4
NELMDL = -12
EDIFF = 1E-4
#MAXMIX = 80
LREAL = .FALSE.
ADDGRID = .TRUE.
#NBANDS = 32

Ionic relaxation
IALGO = 38
NSW = 40
IBRION = 2
POTIM = 0.5
#BMIX = 0.8
EDIFFG = 1E-3

DOS related parameters
ISMEAR = 1
SIGMA = 0.2

Can anybody help me? Thanks very much!
