48. Due to the limited BZ sampling, the equation of state had to be smoothed by correcting for the discontinuities in the basis set as a function of volume following the prescription given by Francis et al. [G. P. Francis and M. C. Payne, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 2, 4395 (1990)].
49. We used ten special points [H. J. Monkhorst and J. D. Pack, Phys. Rev. B 13, 5188 (1976)] in the irreducible BZ of diamond.
