+====== Band structure plot ======
 In previous section we optimized the lattice parameter of graphene. In this section we show how to generate the band structure at given high-symmetry directions. We follow the same procedure as in the previous case of the Silicon bulk:
-====== 1. run 1 SCF to obtain the SCF charges ======
+=== Procedure ===
-===== 2. fix SCF charges and use a set special high symmetry k-points =====
-==== 3. run ====
+  - obtain the SCF charges
+  - generate a set of special high symmetry k-points
+  - get eigenvalue spectra with fixed SCF charges & the set of high symmetry k-points
+  - plot eigenvalue vs. k-points
 To plot the band structure we generated a set of the special k-points heading from K(1/√3,1/3) point to Γ(0,0) ending at M(0,2/3) stored in file C1.kgm.kpts.
+====== Real space electron denisty ======
+Another way to analyze the electronic structure of material is a plot of electron density in real space. This kind of analysis can be compared, with certain caution, with STM images. To obtain this image we have to proceed following steps:
+  - obtain the SCF charges
+  - plot wavefunction in real-space
