Dear Prof.Steven,
Thank you for your instant reply.
I am sorry that I can't understand you.
I know sent the supercell with no defect to calculate slab mode.
But how to project it to the waveguide direction?
Just a large supercell is enough? why? Could you please talk into
it a little bit more in details?
Professor, I know you are busy. If you have no time, Could you
please be so kind to forward this question to one of your student who
can answer me?
Your instant reply will be greatly appreciated.
