I can think this can occur in numerous ways, all a minor mistake: 1. You forgot to include -orb when you did the bands. 2. You had too small a k-mesh for the scf, the fine one for the bands shows a metal. 3. Your grep showed just the "up" spin, not both. 4. You did not fully converge. 5. You forgot -so in the band. 6. You have a mistake in your k-mesh for the bands. 7. Something else similar.
Just my guesses, I suggest you check carefully. Number 7 is most likely. -- Professor Laurence Marks Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Northwestern University www.numis.northwestern.edu "Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought" Albert Szent-Györgyi On Fri, Sep 9, 2022, 10:45 PM Dr. K.
