 +======= Getting the band structure of WO$_3$ Lattice =======
 +
 +In this exercise, you will carry out band structure calculation using K-point sampling for Cubic lattice WO$_3$. The reference band structure you can find in [[http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/cm3032225|this paper]]
 +
 +{{:exercises:2017_uzh_cmest:wo3.jpeg?1200|}}
 +
 +To get the band structure for WO3, only a few changes are required compared to the previous example for [[PDOS|calculating the PDOS]]:

 +<note important>At present, it is not possible to get the projected density of states when doing a K-Point calculation. The special points should be given in terms of the b-vectors.</note>
 +
 +Some notes on the input file:
 +  * By specifying the ''KPOINT'' section you are enabling the K-Point calculation.
 +  * While you could specify the K-Points directly, we are using the Monkhorst-Pack scheme [(http://journals.aps.org/prb/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevB.13.5188)] to generate them. The numbers following the keyword ''MONKHORST-PACK'' specify the tiling of the brillouin zone.
 +  * After the basic calculation, CP2K calculates the energies along certain lines, denoted as ''KPOINT_SET'' (when you check [[https://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/PRINT/BAND_STRUCTURE/KPOINT_SET.html|the documentation]] you will note that this section can be repeated).
 +  * The keyword ''NPOINTS'' specifies how many points (in the addition to the starting point) should be sampled between two special points.
 +  * The ''SPECIAL_POINT'' keyword is used to specify the start-, mid- and endpoints of the line. Those points usually denote special points in the reciprocal lattice/unit cell, like the $\Gamma$, $M$ or $K$ point. You can find the definition for these in the appendix section of [[http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0927025610002697|this paper]]. This keyword can also be specified multiple times, making it possible to directly get the band structure for a complete //path//.
 +
 +Now, when you run this input file you will get in addition the the output file, a file named ''WO3.bs'' which will look similar to the following:
 +
 +<code>
 + SET:                       TOTAL POINTS:      26

 +
 +[...]
 +</code>
 +
 +For each set there is a block named ''SET'' with the special points listed as ''POINT'', followed by sub-blocks for each K-Point containing the energies for each MO.
 +
 +Your tasks:
 +
 +  * Lookup the special points for the $\Gamma$, $X$,$M$,$R$ points in the [[http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/cm3032225|mentioned paper]] (make sure you choose the right lattice). Calculate and plot the band structure for WO3 lattice along $\Gamma$, $X$,$M$,$\Gamma$,$R$,$M$ (you are free to decide whether to use multiple K-Point sets are multiple special points in a single set). Mark the special points. Choose an appropriate number of interpolation points to get a smooth plot.
 +  * Compare your plot with plots from literature. What is different?
 +  * How many orbital energies do you get and why? Try to change the input to get more unoccupied orbitals.
 +
 +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 plot the ''WO3.bs-set-1.csv'' file, you can either load it into $MATLAB$ or use $GNUPLOT$ command line.
 +<code>gnuplot>set yrange [-8:14]
 +gnuplot>plot for [i=4:23] "WO3.bs.set-1.csv" u 0:i w l t ""
