Hi,

I'm very new to yambo code. Can someone please help me where to get Fermi energy and how to do fermi energy correction for a G0W0 bandstructure (plot)?

Thank you!

Dear Pyadav,
Welcome to the yambo forum.

Yambo by convention shifts energies setting to zero the valence band maximum. The Fermi energy is anyway reported in the report file in the
section (search the string Fermi Level): and this is read by the Quantum Espresso output.

So you can shift the Kohn-Sham eigenvalues (band structure) by this value and then apply the GW correction.

Best,
Daniele

Thank you Dr. Daniele for the reply, it really helped!
