    <div>Dear Xi,<br>
      <br>
      Yes, Aron is right. It should be 7 highest valence bands and 4
      lowest conduction bands. His suggestions are very likely the
      reason why you got those big spreads after 2000 steps (usually my
      max iter step is set as 200). <br>
      <br>
      Beside, if you are also using ABINIT, you need to turn on the
      option <br>
               w90iniprj 2<br>
      and also turn on the guild centre option in Wannier90  : <br>
               guiding_centres = TRUE<br>
      to use the beginning projection.<div class=""><br>

      <div>Dear Xi,<br>
        <br>
        If you use only the 7 highest valence bands, and 4 lowest
        conduction bands (by setting the exclude_bands option), then you
        don't need to do the disentangle part at all, because they are
        separated from the higher and lower bands. Check the band
        structure you got from your DFT calculation, to see if it looks
        correct, and set either the bands you want to use, or the energy
        window accordingly. You are probably using different bands now.
        Also, make sure that the wavefunction you are using was fully
        converged when creating the projections and overlaps. If
        everything goes fine, with the Mo:d and S:p initial projections
        all the 11 spreads should be around 1-2 Ang^2 even after the
        first step.<br>

            I have tested,  the DISENTANGLE part converged very well,

                             I think the begin projection for highest 6

                    taken as<br>
