标题: 求助钴铁氧体以及Co3O4的DOS计算时一直不收敛的问题
各位老师好！我想求助一下我DOS计算一直不收敛的问题。我是计算的钴铁氧体以及Co3O4，而且两者的结构优化都是已经完成收敛了的。
我先用两个的CONTCAR结构去做DOS计算，但是一直不收敛，我认为是磁矩问题，后面我是重新把CONTCAR加上了LORBIT=11后重新得到磁矩再进行DOS计算。但是仍然不收敛。采取的措施包括提高了计算精度，ALGO=Normal，以及添加了AMIX。此外，我先是用的ISMEAR=-5,无SIGMA的组合，不收敛后改为了ISMEAR=0/SIGMA=0.05的组合，仍然没有发生收敛。下面是我的INCAR文件。还请各位老师进行解答。谢谢谢谢~

单点计算的时候最好读取结构优化时的WAVECAR，用ISTART=1 ICHARG=0，可以还是用ISMEAR=-5。

谢谢解答，但是我修改之后仍然在200电子步内无法完成收敛

从你的描述里没法确定你是否正确地读取了结构优化的WAVECAR，你有把结构优化的WAVECAR拷贝到DOS计算的文件中吗？你的outfile里有“the WAVECAR file was read successfully”吗？

我看了下我当时结构优化的时候INCAR没有设置输出波函数，LWAVE=FALSE的状态

做DOS计算时读取结构优化的CHGCAR和WAVECAR，就可以收敛了
