<p>Dear Mina,</p>
<p>The k-resolved projection is required if you need to calculate the fatbands, but for DOS it's not really handy. Either you launch again projwfc with kresolveddos=.false. , or you write a script that sum all contributions coming from the same k-point. However, I suggest to run a new calculation because the output of your projwfc has been obtained after a bandstructure calculation. As a consequence, the k-points are arranged along a path instead of forming a regular mesh, which is what you need for your DOS to be meaningful.</p>
<p>In summary, if I were you, I would run a new NSCF calculation with the proper parameters of the dos (tetrahedron method for the occupation, number of bands, whatever...) paying attention in putting disc_io = 'medium' or 'low' at least. Then run a projwfc with the same prefix and outdir as the NSCF calculation, and the variables filpdos = 'pdos' and filproj = 'proj'. The default of kresolveddos is .false., so you don't have to bother with that.</p>
<p>Most likely, the output will still require some additional post-processing from your side to be plottable in a convenient way, but at least you will start with a meaningful sampling of the Brillouin Zone.</p>
<p>Hope my advise has been useful.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>

<div dir="ltr">i have done k-resolved dos calculations in order to do projected band structure. now i have some k.pdos_atm#X_wfc outputs of projwfc.x. These output are different from pdos. i want to plot them by xmgrace.</div>
