I have been using QE for quite some time,<br>and I know the procedures of using the pw.x along with bands.x as well as<br>plotbands.x to obtain the band structures of any system when the<br>temperature is at 0K. However, I am having a challenge on how to increase<br>the temperature from maybe 0K to 100 K or more using pw.x or any other<br>executions files. Although, I am aware that cp.x can be of help, as a<br>result, I have tried cp.x to calculate the following:<br><br>electronic minimization,<br>electronic damped dynamics,<br>geometry optimization by damped dynamic,<br>electronic + ionic dynamic and<br>electronic + ionic dynamic + NOSE thermostat on ions.<br><br>But my serious problem is how to link the results I have with the<br>following runs with my band structure calculations in order to vary the<br>temperature. I am ready to provide more classifications in case if my<br>questions is not clear. Many thanks for your usual support.<br><br>Best regards,<br>Rasaki Adeniji,</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1458061650716_4032" dir="ltr">Department of Physics,<br>FUNAAB,<br>Abeokuta,</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1458061650716_4040" dir="ltr">Nigeria.<br></div></div></body></html>
