Dear all,


I am trying to reproduce the band structure of 2D MoS2. i have successfully reproduced it using a PBE pseudo potential. I am however having some problems with LDA pp. The input is the same, apart from the lattice parameter and the atomic poistions of course.  However I am getting wiggles and bad band structure. The input file for the "LDA" pp is: (only 11 bands are included and 9 are excluded out of 20). Thre is no disentanglement, same as the pbe input case.


num_wann =  11
num_iter=300
num_bands=11
! SYSTEM
exclude_bands:1,2,14,15,16,17,18,19,20
search_shells=20

I am not sure why this is happening. Any help would be appreciated.
