29. Within the siesta code, the cutoff radius of the basis set (pseudoatomic orbitals) can be tuned by a single parameter, energy shift. For lower energy shift we have larger cutoff radii for the atomic orbitals, that is, the basis set has been improved. In the present work, we have considered an energy shift of 0.10 eV to determine the radius cutoff of the pseudoatomic orbitals. Here we verify the convergence of our total energy results for an energy shift of 0.05 eV.

41. Within the LSDA approach, we find metallic spin-down channels for the FM Co-doped ZnO nanoribbon, however, by inclusion of the Hubbard U for the Zn and Co 3d orbitals, DFT+U calculations, we verify that those partially occupied metallic states are suppressed.
