Uniform sampling = no

[Sam-2025]

Dear all,


I would like to recheck the band gap vs Temperature for cubic BTO, using the following tutorial :https://wiki.yambo-code.eu/wiki/index.p ... n_Coupling
I ran scf and nscf using kpoint 6 6 6 and as mentioned in the tutorial I got the following "Q-points (IBZ) PW-formatted" = #20, then I ran phonon and DVSCF calculation(attached the input files), but after running ypp_ph, I got "Uniform sampling :no", , is it should be yes ? I mean when it is "no", how it can affect the result? Could you please let me know, what shall I do to reach a Uniform sampling?
Then
I tried to continue the tutorial and ran for different temperature, but my gap vs T, does not look correct! Also, could you please guide me , how should I choose the "QPkrange " variable in this section. BTO has indirect band gap from R to Gamma point and VBM = 20. Your guidance would be very useful for me. Thank you so much in advance.

Dear all,

no one had this issue before? any guidance would be very useful. Thank you so much in advance.
