Dear  Laurence Marks:<br>
              Thank you very much for your email.you are right. The structure<br>
              should be wrong. But I don&#39;t know where is the wrong of the<br>
              structure. The initinal structure of this C2/m (12). But in<br>
              wien2k, there is no such space. So I convert convert C2/m to<br>
