Dear Esi Zamin,

Can you be a little bit more specific on what you can achieve? Molecular
orbitals are usually obtained by diagonalising a Hermitian Hamiltonian
for an isolated system. However, during transport calculation you have
interactive system, which can not be represented by a Hermitian
Hamiltonian. The Greens function technique, which is used to treat those
system, deliver densities (total density, projected density), but not
molecular orbitals.

  Best regards,
