- Dear Hiroaki,
Why don't you use DFT+U method? http://www.openmx-square.org/openmx_man3.9/node105.html

- Dear Mehdi,
Thank you for your suggestion.
I already tried DFT+U method, but the result was the same. Since the system is spin-degenerated, I think DFT+U method does not affect the electronic structure.

- Hi,
I wondered how you detemined the band gap of your system, since the gap closing seems to occur at low symmetry points in the band dispersion.
On the other hands, using the structure optimized with the GGA-PBE, which was taken from Materiasl Project, I also performed the calculation, and got a band gap of ~0.1 eV at the Y-point, which is consistent with Materiasl Project. One way to have the band gap might be to use the structure optimized with the GGA-PBE, which has a bit longer lattice constants compared to experimental values.
For your reference, the following is the input file used for the calculation.
Regards,
TO

- Dear Prof. Ozaki,
I could reproduce small bandgap using the unit cell presented above. Thank you for your advice!
Best regards, Hiroaki Tanaka
