<div>Dear QE users, </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I want to calculated the band structure of my system with HSE hybrid functional.</div>
<div>As far as I know, we should run scf with HSE first, and then run the bands.x, because the HSE is not implemented in nscf.</div>
<div>I am not sure that the K-point setting in scf file.</div>
<div>How to generate the K-mesh with weight?</div>
<div>and how to generate the K-point with zero weight.</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br>
