Band structure and Dos calculations give different Fermi levels

#1 Post by hosfa » Fri Dec 06, 2013 12:23 am

For a fully relaxed geometry I use pre+calculated charge density (ICHARGE=11) and do the dos and BS calculations BUT
My Fermi level is different in all 3 calculations: SC,DOS and BS
The KPOINTS, ARE different.
Which one is the most correct?
