dear dftb user's
i have tried to use the dftb code to study the properties of polar ZnO surface. however the scc calculations don't converge
i have used the next input file:

i have changed the ewald parameter as well as k point mesh and vaccum regionlenght bur without results
if any one has an idea please let me know
best regards
