[Pw_forum] too many states in PDOS

[Juanjo Meléndez]

Increase your value for degauss in projwfc.x. The smaller the more details you get. You will have to make some tests and decide the optimal value.

Good luck

Subject: [Pw_forum] too many states in PDOS

Dear all,

I am doing a pdos calculation of a supercell of 72 atoms and 

my nbnd=220 during the nscf calculation. when i draw the graphs
using xmgrace, the states looks packed together. Please assist
  where did i go wrong? attached are the graphs for PDOS and 

spin polarization.

Regards
