This example shows how to use pw.x and band_interpolation.x
to calculate the band structure of Silicon using PBE and
hybrid PBE0 functional.
pwscf.xml files are compressed (as filexml.tar.gz) in each folder
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in pbe_reference_bands/ the reference PBE bands have been computed with
${QE}/PW/src/pw.x < pbe.scf.in > log.pbe.scf.in
${QE}/PW/src/pw.x < pbe.nscf.in > log.pbe.nscf.in
${QE}/PW/src/pw.x < pbe.bands.in > log.pbe.bands.in
${QE}/PP/src/bands.x < pbe.pp.in > log.pbe.pp.in
and the plottable PBE band structure is in pbe.bands.dat.gnu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in pbe_fourier/ the interpolated PBE band structure has been computed
by performing a simple SCF
${QE}/PW/src/pw.x < pbe.scf.in > log.pbe.scf.in
and then interpolating the eigenvalues read in pwscf.xml
with the fourier-diff method
${QE}/PP/src/band_interpolation.x < fourier-diff.in > out.fourier-diff.in
and fourier method
${QE}/PP/src/band_interpolation.x < fourier.in > out.fourier.in
The two band structures are stored in files fourier-diff.dat and fourier.dat,
respectively, and can be directly compared with the reference pbe.bands.dat.gnu.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in pbe0_fourier/ the interpolated PBE0 band structure has been computed
similarly to the PBE case
${QE}/PW/src/pw.x < pbe0.scf.in > log.pbe0.scf.in
${QE}/PP/src/band_interpolation.x < fourier-diff.in > out.fourier-diff.in
${QE}/PP/src/band_interpolation.x < fourier.in > out.fourier.in
and two band structures are stored in files fourier-diff.dat and fourier.dat,
respectively.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in pbe_idw/ the (low quality) interpolated PBE band structure has been computed
with the (very simple) idw and idw-sphere methods
${QE}/PW/src/pw.x < pbe0.scf.in > log.pbe0.scf.in
${QE}/PP/src/band_interpolation.x < idw.in > out.idw.in
${QE}/PP/src/band_interpolation.x < idw-sphere.in > out.idw-sphere.in
and two band structures are stored in files idw.dat and idw-sphere.dat,
respectively.
