Dear Professor Giannozzi,

Thank you for your reply. I wanted someone to confirm. I apologize. I
tested the method for ZnO. I was able to find that in the band gap with
this method was smaller than PW LDA (hence wrong). I was hoping that this
method would be valid since I was able to run nscf calculations with this
method and specify a k point path.
