88. In order to obtain the antiferromagnetic-type ground state, we used an initial guess with broken symmetry using the Guess=Mix keyword in Gaussian. When this procedure failed to converge to the long-range AFM-type ground state, we had to prepare the initial guess in an appropriate spin alignment. This was achieved by using the converged results of a higher spin multiplicity state calculation with parallel spins on both edges and flipping the spins associated with the atomic orbitals on one of the edges of the CNT.
