Zhanyong:
Use SCF=XQC or SCF=QC option.

Hi, everyone,
Merry Christmas!!!
I am doing some calculation on some metal complexes, using GENECP for the metal, and 6-31g(d') on C N F. The calculaton is still going, but the E(B3LYP) is oscillating a lot recently, so it won't reach the convergence.
I have done one similar calculation before, it has the same problem. But after I shorten the stepsize to the minimum (iop(1/8=1)), it solve the problem, but this time it can not solve this problem just by doing that.
Since I want to compare the two calculations, I do not want to change into the ultrafine grid.
Whatelse can I do?
Thanks!!!!
Best regards
