[Pw_forum] Fermi Energy

[Javad hashemifar]

Dear pwscf users,

During partial DOS calculation for a metallic compound I found a
difference of about 0.7 eV between the Fermi energies obtained by scf
and nscf calculations. Although the origin of this difference is not
clear to me but I guess the one that is obtained by nscf should be
considered for DOS plotting. Your kind advises in this regard is
highly appreciated.

thanks in advance
