[Pw_forum] Fwd: A unexpected band-structure calculation result

I'm a software engineering student. I'm doing some theoretical physics
calculation work for my thesis recently.  I haven't learned any physics
course and I just read some books.

My targets are band-structure and dos. I got my band-structure calculation
result (http://pkm.yi.org/lf/temp/band.png) yesterday.

I find there is no curve on the left part. Moreover, the band-structure
shows my target material is one of semiconductor ones. but what i want is
some intermediate bands in the a gap. that will show my dopping action make
it work.

Any suggestion (*about pseudo, occupation,CELL_PARAMETERS,ATOMIC_POSITIONS,
K_POINT and all*) is welcomed. Thank you for reply.
