Stoner exchange (or parameter or exchange integral) and (magnetic) exchange splitting are two different things. It seems you did not check the band structures or tried to see what happens when you are just shifting arbitrarily the density of states. I strongly suggest that you first read and

Thanks Dr Gergard or the full explanation I want to deterine the exchange splitting which allows me to determine the Stoner parameter value I If we take the example of Fe, in the paramagnetic state the number of up and the dn electrons equal both 4 and the DOS bands for up and Dn spins are

Actually it is not clear what you want to do, and for what purpose ! ... and answer to "Is correct ?" : NO, the exchange splitting is not the energy difference between two maxima of the density of states. Check the band structure of Fe you see that there are in the majority case three bands

Hello again I have adopted another procedure as follows: I have extracted the energy values corresping to the maximum values of DOS in the up and down spin from the files case.dos1evup and case.dos1evdn and I have found the following values: E (max DOS up = 2.40) = - 0.95185 eV E (maxDOS dn =

Thanks Gerhard for the explanation but I couldn't apply the inforation to get the exchange splitting neither from the DOS nor from the band structure Now i have some questions about my idea using the DOS picture and I want from both of you to answer me - is it possible from the files

maybe use irrep to see how much the bands at the Gamma point are splitted between up and down (single k-point no shift of BZ before calculating lapw1 -up, -dn; but be carefull which states at Gamma you compare) Note the splitting depends on k, what you easily see from the bands, therfore a

I would do this with the band structure (because this could be k-dependent), but DOS is also fine. Just shift up and dn DOS in energy until they overlap as much as possible. This shift is your exchange splitting. Am 24.04.2020 um 00:07 schrieb Abderrahmane Reggad: Hello wien2k users I have
