[Pw_forum] Silicon HSE - Valence band level

[DHIRENDRA VAIDYA]

Hi,

I am doing Silicon bulk calculations to determine the valence band level
w.r.t average electrostatic potential. When HSE is used I am getting
valence band maximum closer to the average electrostatic potential by 0.3eV
which is significant. HSE06 should improve conduction band levels, why is
it changing the valence band too? I am using occupations as fixed to
determined the valence band level.
