more useful for further plotting. Thus, it is
unnecessary to pay much attention to the so called "Fermi energy".
Best Wishes!

You can try to use smearing in scf calculation by adding occupations=

I do not know what plotband uses the Fermi energy for, but have you tried to
just give any energy within the gap? (which you have) Probably any other value
would also do, but just a little trial-and-error has never harmed anybody ...
Also, it would be nice if you were to uveil your identity, aff

the smearing='???' be. also, how do i get the degauss='??' value.

Thanks for that information. But, using occupations='smearing' , what should
the smearing='???' be. also, how do i get the degauss='??' value.

dear all,
?I am working on some semiconductor materials, i want to plot there band
structure. After running the scf,nscf and band calculations. To plot the band
structure, i was asked by the plotband.x to input the value of fermi energy
which i don't have. Please, kindly assist me with this pro
