Dear QE users

I am working on MoS2 which is hexagonal layered structure having 2 Mo and 4 S 
atoms
i wish to study now only a single layer (one Mo and two S). 
The only thing i understand that i 
will have to increase c axis to prevent interaction 
between the layers.
But when i do so i
 realise that all bond length got stretched.

both
 the two input file (bulk and monolayers are attached) 
pls compare the two inputs,
?i got the results for bulk perfectly comparable to the experiment when i run 
for mono sometimes it doesnot and sometimes it gives unwanted 20-30 GB files

I dont know where is the mistake

Thanks in Advance for any help
