Atom out of cell during geometry optimization

Hi

I'm currently use openMX for geometry optimization under external electric field. The method being used is the RF method. I found out some atom in my final structure move out from unit cell, and resulting inconsistency for my band structure calculation. Is there anyway to avoiding it ? is it because i used too large electric field ?

Regards,
Han

Hi,

Even if atoms move out from the unit cell, this should not cause a problem in
calculating the band structure, since we have a periodic boundary condition.

Could you explain the problem you had in more detail?
