Dear all, Thank you for your replay. Actually, I want to calculate absorption energy for only one cubic, only one gold layer. My purpose is to compare the viboration frequency difference between Siesta and another software. By the way, The gold layer was constructed by VESTA, it is different from the structure made by Material Studio. I have modify the inputfile such like that,
