Dear QE Community,
In the postw90 folder, in file Boltzmann.F90, it says,
\param deleig_k array with the band derivatives at the given k point
(in eV * angstrom / (2pi) as internally given by the code)
So deleig_k is the electron velocity at a given k-point. When we set
geninterp=.true.
geninterp_alsofirstder=.true.
The postw90 output includes k-point coordinates (with units), energies (with units) and velocities (no units). Am I correct in assuming that these velocities are in eV*angstrom/(2pi)?
Thank you,
Vahid
