Dear somayeh.
I think Armchair Graphen Nano Ribone has 2D structure .you have to pay
attention for griding (kgrid_Monkhorst)
your griding is for 1   0   0    0.5   1D  structure along Z Direction . Be
sure your structure is 1D or 2 D structure .And
                             0   1   0    0.5
                             0   0  32   0.5
xc.functional GGA ,   xc.authors PBE   Is better and exact approximation i
think.
