Problem in band dplot


Clicked A Few Times
Hi everyone,

I am using band_dplot (in NWChem) to calculate the electron density. However, I met a problem:

At first, my structure is :
 

After band_dplot, my structure is:

It's very wild, because my structure has been changed. As I know, when we do band_dplot to get the electron density, the structure shouldn't been changed.

My input file is :

Any one can help me? Thank you sooooooooo much!

Best wishes,

oops! I can't unpload my pic.. Any way the pic 1 and 2 is just to show the structure has been changed after the band_dplot

I am just wondering whether it is due to my crystal isn't a cube?

Oh, I have found answers. The structure is good. I hadn't noticed the different view of crystal cell.
