Dear Alex,

Thank you so much for your kind helping.
My structure is consist of an adenine molecule connected to Au
electrodes via sulphur atoms. I used one scf calculation for my
structure and based on your examples I am not sure I am in right way.

Could you help me please?
Thank you in advance.

Best,
Raha
