However, if you want to use the functional other than that, then use the key word input_dft. In case you want to use Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) generalized gradient approximation (PBE) functional (in may cases, this is the default choice), use the variable input_dft as &SYSTEM ... input_dft = 'pbe' ... / and in the case of PBEsol input_dft = 'pbesol'
