I am trying to calculate the fermi arc at the surface of my material. My question is about the output:
In the input, I specify the kplane_slab as follows
KPLANE_SLAB
-1.0 -1.0 ! Original point for 2D k plane
2.0 0.0 ! The first vector to define 2D k plane
0.0 2.0 ! The second vector to define 2D k plane for arc plots
But when I look at the arc.dat_l, kplane is just ranging from around -0.85 to +0.85 and I have a plot as follows:
My question is why is it not plotting from -1 to +1 range as I specified in the input file? Also, I have a tetragonal system and I expect my brillouin zone to be from -0.5 to +0.5 but from the plot, it is not and it shifted to -0.4 to +0.4.
Please let me know if you need further information regarding this problem.
