Dear Pashangpour, what I meant is that the meaning of the variables intersmear and intrasmear of epsilon is quite similar to that of degauss in DOS or projwfc, and that convergences should be studied in a similar way... (note that very often kpt meshes denser than those used for scf runs are

Dear Pashangpour, the idea is very similar to the usual kpt convergence vs smearing parameter for a DOS calculation. At variance with scf runs, here you are computing a spectral quantity (the dielectric function as a function of the frequency), meaning that you may need a (much) finer mesh o

you will never have the correct experimental gap with epsilon. Epsilon implements Random Phase Approximation dielectric response with no-local fields effects (and of course no-excitonic effects). You need to go to state-of-art GW caluclations + Bethe-Salpeter. Or at least some hybrid functional. Re

Hi Silvia, the dielectric tensors computed by epsilon are defined on cartesian coordinates, and symmetry is not used to reduce the number of components to be computed. Of course, this does not mean that the proper symmetry of the dielectric tensor is missing (and this is typically a good check t
