Dear Tavneet Kaur,

Ok. But please note that it is recommended to use the latest version (currently 
this is 6.7).


> I am encountering error in band.out on using spin_component = 2,


This is because your are performing a noncollinear spin-polarized calculation. 
In this case, you must not specify the parameter "spin_component" in the input 
file for the bands.x program.


I also noticed that in nscf.in you have this:

> conv_thr = 1.0d-6

This is a too high value. Try to use something around 1.0d-10.

>  La2  138.9055   La.rel-pz-spfn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF

Also it is not clear why do you have two sublattices of La atoms (since in your 
case they have the same spin polarization).

Respected Sir,

I have used 6.5 version of quantum espresso. Moreover, the hubbard potential 
for Lanthanum atom (5d1) was not in the 6.5 qe files, so I have edited the 
hubbard files- set_hubbard_l.f90, set_hubbard_n.f90 and tabd.f90 for Lanthanum 
atom (5d1) of qe-6.5. The compressed version of all my input and output files 
are attached along with this email. Kindly help me to resolve the error.

With Regards

Can you provide all files of your calculations using Google Drive?


Please indicate which version of QE are you using and all other relevant 
information as explained here: https://www.quantum-espresso.org/forum
