General Questions and Answers / Fermi energy location in band diagram for ATK and VASP
« on: November 30, 2020, 15:39 »
Dear Quantumwise staff:
Hi, i found the Fermi energy in band diagram is different for VASP and ATK. Take MoS2 for example, For VASP, the Fermi energy is near valence band (See VASP.jpg). However, for ATK. the Fermi energy locates about half of valence and conduction (see ATK.jpg). So, i want to know, how to determine Fermi energy in ATK? DOS integration from the lowest energy to Fermi energy=total electron?
