It is of course correct. In a P cell, you get the P reciprocal lattice.

However, in order to compare with the original fcc bands, you can use

fold2bloch (see unsupported software at our home page).

It allows you to fold te P bands back to FCC and you will be able to see the new features (non-bloch character) due to the impurities as compared to the original bands.

Dear Wien2k users,

                    We have transformed a material with FCC space group symmetry to primitive lattice by forming a supercell in order to incorporate the substitution of an element partially.

*Our query is:* when we are trying to plot band structure, we are getting the special symmetric points corresponding to simple cubic symmetry while not getting the special points corresponding to FCC symmetry.

In this regard, while the plotted band structure is correct or wrong? If its wrong what is the remedy.

Thanks in advance.

with regards,
