Hi guys,

I want to do a structural optimization of bulk perovskites with application of finite electric field. However, I found two options in the manual, EFIELD and EFIELD_PEAD. Do those two methods give different results? I tried with EFIELD_PEAD for the structural optimization. It turned out that only the first ionic step turned the E on. Is it true or maybe I made some mistake in the INCAR?

Thank you very much!!!
