[QE-users] Got Different fermi energy from qe as compared to published result (vasp)

[Aurab Chakrabarty]

Are the energy levels in dos relative to the Fermi level also different?
Can you set the Fermi levels of both cases to zero and check that the dos
don't match?

What do you refer by dft d3, is it the van der Waals correction?

Best,
Aurab
