Dear Alessandro,

Very thanks for your kind helping. It worked well. I changed the geometry
and found the transmission  (here is attached) but i am not sure whether it
is correct or not. It seems to have a peak at fermi level means the
structure behaves metallic that may not be in agreement with DFT
calculation for benzene+cnt electrodes (J. Phys. Chem. A 2009, 113,
4100–4104). It will be very kind of to help me in this case.

Best regards,
Raha
