[QE-users] energy band

Hi;

So without calculating the band energies that you want in your "scf" calculations, you can not increase your window in the "bands" calculations.

I would again suggest to increase your nbnd, starting from scf.

Dear expert and all

I want to choose an energy window for my energy band calculation.
So I want to know that how to define energy window in my bands input file.
Already send in above mail.

Hi;

You can increase your "nbnd" in your scf calculations followed by bands calculations with the same nbnd.

Dear expert and all

I have done bands calculation , or fermi energy is -0.1382 Ry .
but not received energy bands above this fermi energy , only received bands till -0.18 Ry energy .

so, how can I calculate the above energy bands in my DFT calculation? I am using qe-6.3 .

input file also attached.
&control
    calculation = 'bands',
    prefix = 'Dope-Zn4Sb3_exc1',
    outdir = './tmp/'
    pseudo_dir = './'
    verbosity = 'high'

 &system
    ibrav =  4,
    celldm(1)= 23.1132402,
    celldm(3)= 1.016106614,
    nat =  12,
    ntyp = 3,
    nbnd = 80,

    ecutwfc = 27,
    ecutrho = 136
