Dear users
I want to simulate a nanostructure with using espresso code so I give this
structure

&CONTROL
                 calculation = 'nscf' ,
                restart_mode = 'from_scratch' ,
                      outdir = '/home/zareh/espresso- 2.1.3/work/zns_nano/'
,
                  pseudo_dir = '/home/zareh/espresso-2.1.3/pseudo/' ,
                      prefix = zns ,
               etot_conv_thr = 1.D-6 ,
               forc_conv_thr = 1.D-5 ,
 /
 &SYSTEM
                       ibrav = 2,
                   celldm(1) = 30.670266,
                         nat = 10,
                        ntyp = 2,
                     ecutwfc = 20. ,
                       nosym = .true. ,
                 occupations = 'smearing' ,
                     degauss = 0.002 ,
                       nspin = 1 ,

             diagonalization = 'cg' ,

The calculation for pw.x was good but my problem is in finding band
structures.I don't know what k-points is good for this structure.I will
appreciate if tell me what k-point is good for this structure or give me a
recommend that how usually  we  choose k-point for any structure because I
usually use automatic generation k-point and I don't know how manually i can
choose the k-points.
Sincerely yours
