Dear Clarence,

How could we know, without having any details about your system, pseudo potentials, ...? If you could provide them, maybe also the output as attachment if it is not too large. Is the nqx1 = nqx2 = nqx3 = 1 sufficient? 30 Ry, hmm, this must be some "easy element" for the pseudo potentials.

    Greetings,

       apsi

Dear all,

I use the HSE function to calculate the band structure of my system. However, I 
found that the band gap is much smaller than that of other
researchers(about 2eV obtained from vasp). I also calculated the PBE band gap, 
which agrees well with previous reports.

I also attached my scf input file. The pseudopotentials is Norm-conserving.
