Hi!

Could you, please, specify where exactly you read that you need to get a .dbs file?

Hi!

I never used the method you mention. I usually take the EIG file and format it using readband.py script. It formats EIG file so that one has band energies in columns. That way one can plot the band structure even using Office (Spreadsheet or Calc). I use Xmgrace for plotting.

Best regards,

Igor

can i have your readband.py script?
i copy band data of out file in file name's " eigenenergies" and use
grep -v wtk eigenenergies | grep -n '.' > data
at end use gnuplot for plot.
but i don't know how define direction for circuit in K space!! :roll:

Hi!

readband.py script won't help you define directions through Brillouin zone. These are defined in your input file. The best case is when you already have a band structure plot to compare to. Then you just use the same directions. Otherwise you have to choose the directions by yourself. Thi website can help you a lot
