Hi, I have a question regarding DOS calculation. Is it possible to set the electron temperature, say 300K or even higher when calculating DOS for a particular system? Thank you.

the electron T is due to the T-semaring of the system, if ISMEAR= -1, 0 or 1, 2
If you choose one of these settings, Tel is taken into account according to the smearing width (SIGMA)
the T you choose in INCAR corresponds to the kinecic energy of the ions.
