Hello all, I'm working on the beta-FeSe system. In the first step I have done a simple LDA calculation. Unfortunately, after adjusting ecutwfc and scf K_POINTS, I can’t get the relatively accurate result compared to VASP and wien2k (the result of VASP and wien2k agree well on the fermi surface). It’s likely that the pseudopotential has some problem or I miss some key steps. The input files are listed below.
