[QE-users] I'm confused about how to use PBE0
Hello, I noticed that bandgap of ZnO is underestimated when using GGA. It seems like PBE0 is the most accurate methode in my case to find a value close to the experimental one. Neverthless I don't know how to use it and how much time i'll need to run it in a laptop with 8 processors. Can you please clarify my doubts?

Dear Malika, the Fock exchange (also known as exact exchange) included in PBE0 is very computationally intensive, it is unlikely that you'll be able to run it on a laptop. kind regards On 01/03/2023 22:30, Battal Malika wrote: Hello, I noticed that bandgap of ZnO is underestimated when using GGA.

Re: [QE-users] I'm confused about how to use PBE0
A 4-atom unit cell of ZnO can likely run on a desktop/laptop pc using PBE0, as long as you don't care too much about your hardware (desktop/laptop pc are generally not happy if you stress them for hours with codes designed mainly for workstation/HPC use). You can still find somewhere in the internet a famous video posted many years ago by prof. Marzari who run a 2-atom Si cell on his Nokia N-something cell phone. :-D Completely different is the case of a ZnO bulk supercell or even surface slab. No way in this case, you need suitable resources. Anyway, ZnO is a nasty beast, as you can have spurious mixing of Zn 3d and O 2p shells. If you are mainly interested in recovering a band gap close to the optically measured one, then you should mess with the EXX fraction of PBE0 (or HSE), raising it to 35-40%.
