Your calculation went astray long before the segmentation fault occured. It is known that the OrderN regime is quite fragile. Among other things, you need a large enough band gap and (I think) an initial value of the chemical potential. Do you absolutely need to run your calculation as OrderN ? Did you try to run it in diagonalization regime? Did you try to calculate bulk ZnO and get reasonable results? Best regards Andrei Postnikov
