Dear All, I am trying to make molecular orbitals of a triplet dioxygen molecule (O2) for which I am using pp.x available in QE. I am able to draw O2 orbitals upto pi antibonding orbitals which intuitively looks correct to me . After that, I want to plot a sigma antibonding orbital of O2 but I am getting strange orbitals. I have attached the image associated with nband=8 obtained in scf calculation.
