my zero bias calculation for both parallel and anti-parallel configuration, as well as finite bias 0.05v calculation for parallel configuration, converges well, but when I do 0.05V calculation for anti-parallel geometry, the calculation doesn't converge at all. I have used the zero bias calculation as the initial state for the finite bias 0.05V calculation and damping factor 0.05, history steps 12. I have attached my script file for your reference.

I guess it's the num_histoty_steps that is creating problem in convergence, I reduced the k-point to na=13, nb=7, and nc=141 and num_history_steps=12. The zero bias calculation converged in 147 steps, but 0.05V, 0.3V, 0.35V, 0.4V bias doesn't converge to the requested tolerance of 1E-06 in 200 steps. The detailed log file is attached

As suggested by you, I tried K-point= 18, 10 and 300, damping factor 0.05, history steps 12 and equivalent bulk method. The calculation for zero bias converged in 115 steps, 0.05 V in 36 steps, but for bias 0.1V it didn't converge to the requested tolerance of 1E-05 in 200 steps.

Just select all the transmission spectrum .hdf5 files for different bias and use the IV generator tool for calculating the current for different biases.

I am trying to calculate IV curve fore MTJ .  The calculation is not converging after bias of 0.4V. I have used DZP basis set for all the elements and have kept damping factor to 0.05.

I have followed the above mentioned guide. I have used equivalent bulk method also, k-point along C direction is 141. you can have a look at the attached input script for detail inputs given by me. If anything wrong please suggest. I have observed that charges build up near the electrode(lower index atom and highest index atoms). please suggest for improvement.

My IV curve calculation is not converging after bias of 0.2V. In device structure, I have a substitutional doped Cr atom in cental region(3 layer of MoS2). Calculation with no doping is converging well but not with doped structure.
