Si bandstructure
Description: Bandstructure for Si within DFT+HF
Mind: For PBE bandstructure refer to Fcc Si bandstructure example.

## Do a HSE hybrid functional banstructure ## calculation with ## (1) the KPOINTS.HSE.G-X file ## (i) preconverge with DFT using the standard KPOINTS file ## (ii) HSE calculation using the KPOINTS.HSE.G-X file ## (iii) plot with p4vasp ## (2) using VASP2WANNIER90 (Use the standard KPOINTS file) ## (i) preconverge with DFT ## (ii) HSE calculation with LWANNIER90=.TRUE. and wannier.win ## (iii) Run wannier90: wannier90.x wannier90 ## (iv) Restart wannier90 wih the bandplot options in wannier.win uncommented ## Better first preconverge with DFT ## Default ISMEAR = 0 SIGMA = 0.01 GGA = PE ## HSE #LHFCALC = .TRUE. ; HFSCREEN = 0.2 ; AEXX = 0.25 #ALGO = D ; TIME = 0.4 ; LDIAG = .TRUE. ##VASP2WANNIER #LWANNIER90=.TRUE.

Bandstructure plot in VASP (Three different ways)
1) Standard way: PBE (Fcc Si bandstructure example).
1.1 Standard self-consistent (SC) run
1.2 non-SC calculation (ICHARG=11) using preconverged CHGCAR file and KPOINTS_PBE_bands
2) Fake SC procedure: PBE & HSE
2.1 Standard self-consistent (SC) run
2.2 Additional SC-run using KPOINTS_HSE_bands
----
The file KPOINTS_HSE_bands is constructed by copying the IBZKPT file from run 2.1 to the KPOINTS file:

3.2 run wannier90 (wannier90.x wannier90) to generate MLWFs
3.3 uncomment bandstructure plot flags in wannier90.win and restart wannier90
----
If the wannier90.win file does not exist VASP will create a default wannier90.win compatible with
the POSCAR and INCAR, which need to be suitably modify by including the proper instruction required
to generate the MLWFs (refer to the wannier90 manual):
