Dear QE Users,
I am trying to simulation a system with cell parameter represented below:
&SYSTEM
a = 9.66639e+00
b = 1.08037e+01
c = 1.65553e+01
cosab = 1.72500e-01
cosac = 1.52180e-01
cosbc = 1.69516e-02
ibrav = 14
nat = 182
ntyp = 5
And I choose the uniform k grid as 6x6x6 for SCF calculation.
But the eigenvalue between each k point (same band) are almost
same. I also try calculate the band structure with k path:

The band structure in the plot is flat. What is reason for that? Is there
any mistake I made during the simulation? It will be very appreciated if
you solve my question. Thank you.
