This example shows how to use the auxiliary tool merge_wann.x to
merge the results of a block wannierizations into a unique one and
then run a kcw calculaton for GaAs. This is needed in case we do
not want the Wannierization to mix KS states too far in energy.
1) run a standard scf and nscf calculation at PBE level on a regular 2x2x2 mesh.
The regular mesh is needed by Wannier90.
input=GaAs.(n)scf.in, output=GaAs.(n)scf.out
2) perform a separate wannierization for the occupied manifold.
Using exclude_bands we perform 3 different wannierzations
results in ./wann_*block
3) use the merge_wann.x tool to merge the U matrices (and centers) in
unique U (and centres) file
4) prepare the KCW calculation
input=kc.w2ki output=kc.w2ko
5) calculate, interpolate and diagonalize the KI Hamiltonian
input=kc.khi, output=kc.kho
The band structure is in GaAs.kcw_bands.dat.
NB: this is a miningless calculation as
i) we use nspin = 1
ii) the screening coefficients are set to 1
NB2: run_example_1block perform a standard procedure, i.e.
without the block wannierization. This is for reference
