<div dir="auto">Hi. I do not know why this error appears, but if your system is a big system, with 50 or more atoms, the GW method is not the best for you, due to the computational cost. In this case I would prefer an hybrid functional or a pos-calculation correction of homo lumo with a highest level of theory, as the GW over the monomer.</div> <div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">El lun., 30 de dic. de 2019 5:24 a. m., shabnam borji <<a href="mailto:shabna...@gmail.com">shabna...@gmail.com</a>> escribió: </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"> Hi, I searched GW method and find an input for this type of calculation.

But I guess, the band gap subestimation is due to the GGA functional used... This is a typical error of GGA... You can improve it using hybrid functionals o GW approximation. If your system is a solid, HSE functional could give you a very good gap... For a molecule organic B3LYP. That is as a first glance.
