Dear Christoph,

Thank you for your help.

I will have a look at the discretization for a simpler case and then scale up 
the system to what I have currently.

Best wishes,
Isobel

Sorry, I have no more specific idea about what the problem could be in
your case.

When seeing such inconsistent behavior within a sequence of
discretizations, I would try to verify the consistency of that sequence
in simpler circumstances.  For example, one could verify that the
bandstructure evolves as expected as one changes the discretization
length.  A second possible check would be to do some time-independent
transport computation.

If you find an inconsistency already with these simpler checks, it will
be easier to understand.  If you do not, you have narrowed down the
problem already.
