Dear Dhavala Suri,
The file which you sent is meant for 'pw.x', to calculate the bands
(Kohn-Sham states at a given density, or local ie. Kohn-Sham potential).
'bands.x' is used to post-process the calculated band structure, namely to
extract the eigenvalues from the wave functions. Which operation do you
want to perform here?
The standard procedure is given in the tutorials and examples, but here
a quick summary:
#> pw.x -in scf.in|relax.in # calculate self-consistent electronic structure
#> pw.x -in bs.in # calculate band structure, calculation = "bands"
#> bands.x -in bands.in # evaluate the band structure - fast
#> plotband.x bands-file.dat # create a plot
Greetings,
apsi
