Dear Martin,

Thanks a lot for your email. Quite interesting!! Here is attached the final
transmission plot for my calculation in addition to input files. I also
used mio parameter set.
May I ask you which k-point sampling did you use? I am trying to change
different parameters to find the solution.

Best,
Raha
