A question about DOSs of Si & Al
Date: 2008/06/14 08:32
Name: Yonghong Zhao   <yongh_zhao518@163.com>

Dear T.Ozaki,

=========I have found my faults. It's because I have use a non-primitive cell, and there are more states. When I use the primitive cell to plot DOSs, everything goes right. Thank you very much.
=========
I'm sorry to trouble you again. When I try to calculate the DOSs of Al, I found a unphysical discontinuity of DOS about 8.5 eV below the Fermi level. Also I get the discontinuity in the DOS of Si about 11 eV below the Fermi level. For AlP, Their also is the discontinuity. Next I give my 'Al.dat' file and 'Al.inp' file for ADPACK.

Because I get the discontinuity in DOSs of several cases. I think there maybe some general faults in my calculation. If possible, I want to give you my figure of DOSs.
Thank you very much for any of your help.

Best wishes,

Yonghong Zhao
