[Wien] narrow band at the Fermi level in organic system

Hallo,

If you difference in width is not due to artificial broadening in DOS,
then you can examine the .qtl files, to check how your particular
band of interest disperges over all k-points. Then, if the overall
dispersion is indeed larger than you'd expect from your spaghetti calculations,
you'll see which k-points are responsible for this.

Good luck,

Andrei Postnikov

|    I have calculated a larger organic system (the space group is  P21/n and there are 36 inequivalent atoms in the unit cell ). The DOS shows that there is a narrow spin-up band (about 0.3ev wide) crossing the Fermi level. But the band  calculation along the k direction like A(0,0,0)--->B(0,-1,0)--->C(0,-1,-1)-- D(0,0,0)  shows that there is only a much narrower band (only about 0.04 eV) near the Fermi level. I have also chosen  several other k directions,  but the spin-up band near the Fermi level are all about only 0.04eV wide. These k points are  generated by the XcrysDen program.   Furthermore, the E-k  dispersion is not very smooth as usual case. I want to know if someone can help me to solve this problem.
