There is an example for Silicon band calculation in the example folder, have you checked that?

You can choose to have the band plot in another format. I never used but there are some codes (in fortran or matlab) you can use to plot. Also xmgrace is another option. And there are plenty inputs in the forum if you search :) HTH best regard & thanks On Thu, Feb 6, 2014 at 4:06 PM, Hadi Arefi <hadi.arefi at tyndall.ie<mailto:hadi.arefi at tyndall.ie>> wrote: From: pw_forum-bounces at pwscf.org<mailto:pw_forum-bounces at pwscf.org> [mailto:pw_forum-bounces at pwscf.org<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of ehsan targholi Sent: 06 February 2014 11:32 To: PWSCF Forum Subject: [Pw_forum] obtain k-point for band structure calculation >hi >Q.E users >I am trying to calculate band structure of graphene . but i dont know how i >can set the k-point for bands calculation's . Along which direction bands make sense for grapheme? Obviously not along the vacuum direction!
