25. Structural determination calculations were performed with electronic structure codes VASP [G. Kresse and J. Furthmüller, Comput. Mater. Sci. 6, 15 (1996)]. PAW pseudopotentials generated within the generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) exchange correlation functional and distributed with the VASP package were used.

26. Electron-phonon calculations were performed with density functional perturbation theory using the program Quantum-EXPRESSO [S. Baroni, S. de Gironcolo, and A. Dal Corso, Rev. Mod. Phys. 73, 515 (2001)]. The electronic wave function was expanded with a kinetic energy cutoff of 100 Ryd. RMPHAT 0034-6861 10.1103/RevModPhys.73.515
27. Monkhorst-Pack meshes [H.J. Monkhorst and J.D. Pack, Phys. Rev. B PLRBAQ 0556-2805 13, 5188 (1976). 10.1103/PhysRevB.13.5188] were used for Brillouin zone (BZ) integrations in the electronic calculations (k-mesh), and BZ sampling in phonon and electron-phonon coupling (EPC) calculations (q-mesh). EPC matrix elements were computed in the first BZ on a 8×8×8 q-mesh using individual EPC matrices obtained with a 24×24×24 k-mesh.
