Dear Prof. Blaha and Michael Gurnett,

Thank you for support with structure files!!!

For surface electronic structure its good to have many layers! In this
way surface bands are easier to separate from bulk ones. This is because
more atoms in supercell means more eigenvalues and more 'choices' for bulk
and surface. So I will try with 23 if only the Linux server I am using
can handle this.

Regards,

Lukasz
