hi all,
I would like to do projected bulk bandstructure calculation using VASP,inoder to find out the surface states.Could any one please advice me ,the procedure and parameters are required for the calculation.

the easiest way to obtain projected band structures is to do it via p4vasp, and to define the 'surface bands' by requesting a certain amount of partial charge (to be chosen arbitrarily) to be localized in the atoms of the slab surface layer(s)
