Dear Niharika joshi,

    I'm not sure to understand correctly your problem, but I think your case is 
similar to one of the examples on the webpage you mentioned, namely "Monatomic 
Ni wire with a spin reversal". You have to double to unit cell (in a specular 
manner) in the scf calculation of the scattering region, then use only the 
first half in the pwcond calculation.

In both cases there is one "junction", but two "interfaces" (one between left 
lead and scattering region and a second between scattering region and right 
lead).
The difference is that the leads are the same in the parallel case, while they 
are different in the antiparallel one.
In both cases, what the code computes is what one expects, the conductance for 
the single junction (i.e., for electrons "going" from the left lead to the 
right one through the scattering region).
