[DFTB-Plus-User] Electric field strength value

[HAJNAL Zoltán]

Dear Sharma,

the NIST value is "1 atomic unit of electric field" expressed in V/m,
while the cited manual value can be understood as "1 V/m" expressed in
atomic units.

As the numerical values are reciprocal, the difference in the orders of
magnitude
will be double the exponent's absolute value.

Best, z
