'nscf' calculations also compute the Fermi energy and occupations. If the number of bands (nbnd) you specify is smaller than the number of occupied bands, you get an error. Paolo On Tue, Sep 15, 2020 at 10:29 AM SHIVANI SAINI wrote: > Dear all, > > I am trying to calculate the electronic

Dear Saini, Have you tried increasing the k-points grid? At least doubled relative to the SCF one. For instance, if you have run an SCF calculation with a 10x10x10 grid, then try to use 20x20x20 in your NSCF run. Or else you could also change the 'tetrahedra' occupations into the gaussian just

Hello checked my sent folder, the message is there. I  rewrite it in any case your input file has startingpot='atom'. This  is usually wrong.  An  nscf calculation need to read   the charge density from a previous calculation. In nscf case thus  startingpot may be left unspecified or,
