Dear Postnikov,
       Thanks for your help ! As your advice, I changed the supercell (3 3 0) 
into (4 4 0), however, new problem occured. I tried many parameters, but there 
was always the same error:
          "+  Segmentation fault "
        I don't konw what this error means and how to eliminate it .
 
sincerely
Liu
