The calculated band gap is close to the expected value.</div><div><br></div><div>My problem is the band structure calculation.</div><div><br></div><div>For PBE, I can calculate the band structure along a standard high-symmetry k-point path without any difficulty. However, the same workflow does not work with HSE06 because the high-symmetry k-points are not compatible with the SCF k-point grid (or similar hybrid-functional-related errors are reported).</div><div><br></div><div>I searched the mailing-list archive and found several discussions on this topic, but I am still not sure what is currently the recommended procedure in Quantum ESPRESSO 7.5.</div><div><br></div><div>Could you please clarify the following?</div><div><br></div><div>What is the recommended workflow for calculating an HSE06 band structure in Quantum ESPRESSO 7.5?</div><div>Has the recommended procedure changed since the discussions in the mailing list from previous years?</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you very much for your help.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Manijeh Tozihi</div><div><br></div></div></body></html>
