Dear Experts, I applied scissors operator in energy bands (now Ef is at VMB, previously it was in the middle of VBM and CMB).
I reduced :FER in the case.insp. I still have two queries: 1) I think we do not need to change anything for DOSS. is it? 2) If I CBM upward, should I adjust/ apply scissors operator in case.inkram file: *case.inkram* 0.1 Gamma: broadening of interband spectrum 0.0 energy shift (s3) inissors operator) * >>>>> I reduced :FER in case.insp by 0.134513495 Ryd. How to use it here + 0.134513495 or * * -0.134513495)?? * 0 add intraband contributions? yes/no: 1/0 12.60 plasma frequencies (from joint, opt 6) 0.20 Gammas for Drude terms Yours Sincerely Bhamu On Fri, Dec 2, 2016 at 7:29 PM, Dr. K.
