Dear Prof. Blaha, dear All, Thank you for the rapid response. I tested lapw7 and it works nicely, I can plot the phase.
I was wondering about the meaning of the phase for the periodic system. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the total phase would include the Bloch envelope exp(i.k.r) and the intra-unit-cell phase differences. lapw7 allows plotting more than a single unit cell (in case of the slab, it is naturally the "parallel" direction). Would the phase then include the Bloch envelope or not? I have a feeling it does include the Bloch envelope, is that correct?
