Dear Venessa,
I also had similar kind of problem in past, but in my
case I have an Zn ion and PB is not very good in
dealing with ions.
Other thing was ion was free floating (not bound to
anything), therefore during calculation surface is
changing all the time which also gives huge error.
I hope this help. Or you may want to read papers about
how PB works
Thanks
