<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear Janyang Xi, <br>
what do you mean with 'The 5th band of graphene along
Gamma-K-M-Gamma is unsatisfactory compared with pwscf calculation'?<br>
<br>
In your calculation, you set the frozen window to 3eV; you cannot
thus expect that the bands at higher energy resemble the ab-initio
calculated ones. Note also that for most purposes, one is only
interested at what happens near the Fermi energy. So as far as the
bands near the Fermi energy (and possibly a few eV above it) are
correctly reproduced, the results shouldn't be affected.<br>
<br>
If instead the bands are not correctly reproduced below 3eV, it is
possible that you didn't reach convergence yet, or that you found
a local minimum for the spread instead of the global minimum. <br>
<br>
Best,<br>

<pre wrap="">Dear all,
I've just used the wannier90 code with the pwscf interface to calculate the electronic structure of graphene for practice.But I have some problems:
I use 5 MLWFs for a primitive unit cell of graphene: pz orbitals on every atom and sp2 orbitals on 'every other' atom. But the final spread(Ang^2) is still large(about 6.86). The 5th band of graphene along Gamma-K-M-Gamma is unsatisfactory compared with pwscf calculation.
The inputs: xx.scf,xx.nscf,xx.pw2wan and xx.win; The outputs:xx.wout and band.JPG are in the attachments.
Thanke you!
Best wishes
Jinyang Xi
