 In this exercise, you will carry out Density Of States(DOS) and band structure calculation using K-point sampling for Cubic lattice WO$_3$. The reference DOS and band structure you can find in [[http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/cm3032225|this paper]] In this exercise, you will carry out Density Of States(DOS) and band structure calculation using K-point sampling for Cubic lattice WO$_3$.

 <note important>Different $\sigma$ values give you different convolution, which mean the lineshape is different. A reasonable $\sigma$ value is required to get a good PDOS plot. When visualize the PDOS, only energy region close to the Fermi level is interesting. One need to adapt the xrange properly.</note> <note important>Different $\sigma$ values give you different convolution, which mean the lineshape is different.

 To convert the band structure file to a file which can be plotted directly, you can use the script ''cp2k_bs2csv.py'' from below, which when passed a band structure file ''WO3.bs'' as an argument will write files ''WO3.bs-set-1.csv'' for each set containing the K-Point coordinates and the energies in one line. To convert the band structure file to a file which can be plotted directly, you can use the script ''cp2k_bs2csv.py'' from below, which when passed a band structure file ''WO3.bs'' as an argument will write files ''WO3.bs-set-1.csv'' for each set containing the K-Point coordinates and the energies in one line.
