hi everyone here :
i have a puzzled question about the relaxed structure :
i relaxed a structure : ,i set c direction of crystal lattice is 2.7950 and
the final result is
entering subroutine stress ...
total stress (Ry/bohr**3) (kbar) P= -
1.06
-0.00000893 -0.00000001 -0.00000001 -1.31 0.00 0.00
-0.00000001 -0.00000892 0.00000000 0.00 -1.31 0.00
-0.00000001 0.00000000 -0.00000382 0.00 0.00 -0.56
bfgs converged in 25 scf cycles and 22 bfgs steps
End of BFGS Geometry Optimization
Final energy = -137.7926586085 Ry
so , i reduced the length of c ,set to 2.760, and the result is :
entering subroutine stress ...
total stress (Ry/bohr**3) (kbar) P= -
0.81
-0.00000882 -0.00000004 0.00000001 -1.30 -0.01 0.00
-0.00000004 -0.00000881 0.00000000 -0.01 -1.30 0.00
0.00000001 0.00000000 0.00000106 0.00 0.00 0.16
bfgs converged in 35 scf cycles and 32 bfgs steps
End of BFGS Geometry Optimization
Final energy = -137.7921913584 Ry
and my problem is which the structure is better ?
according to stress ,seems latter,but accrording the energy ,seems the
former ?
i do not know
so please give me some help
thank you
