62. In our frameworks of calculation, it is not possible to include SOC combined with GW [M. Shishkin and G. Kresse, Phys. Rev. B 75, 235102 (2007)]. We note that the inaccuracies from first-principles calculations may result in an overlap between the conduction band and valence band, which is as small as 0.1 eV.
