<p>Hello,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am trying to read wave functions from pw_export.x output. To check whether I have done it correctly, I calculated <\psi_n|P|\psi_n>(P is momentum operator and is -i\hbar\partial_r) using fourier coefficients of wave functions, which should be proportional
to band derivative. However, it turns out this is not the case. Now there are two possibilities:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>1. Is it because I made some mistakes while reading wave functions? I think pw_export.x stores fourier coefficients of wave functions in 'Eigenvectors' tag and fourier components are stored in 'Wfc_grids'.</p>

</p>
<p>2. Is <span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", NotoColorEmoji, "Segoe UI Symbol", "Android Emoji", EmojiSymbols; font-size: 16px;"><\psi_n|P|\psi_n> not proportional to band derivative using
pseudopotentials?</span></p>
