Hi, everyone
The "PBE hybrid functional" is given as: 
Exc(PBE)=a*Ex(HF)+(1-a)*Ex(PBE)+Ec(PBE). There is a weight parameter "a" in the range (0,1), and PBE0 is for a=0.25. How can I change the parameter "a" in the input file of PWSCF code?
"Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 106802 (2008)" and "Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 046405 (2008)"
have changed parameter "a" in order to make the bandgap value of some semiconductors agreed with experiment.
thanks
