Dear Tengfei Cao,
I could not spot any obvious problem in your file. All I can suggest is to
try a normal smearing instead of tetrahedra for the nscf calculation: I'm
not sure tetrahedras are suitable for 2-dimensional systems. In particular
I got some funny graphics using tetrahedras to integrate the *phonon* dos
of graphene.


best regards
