Dear users,
This would probably be a very silly question: how can I generate the k
points for band calculation along the high symmetry direction using
kpoints.x with weight 1?
I know the method using xcrysden or so...
The "kpoint.x" method I find useful for massive parallel coding. I tried
running the binary, but the weights have changed. Is there a trick to get
something like this, for example in case of silicon bulk:
K_POINTS { crystal }
