37. Due to different models adopted for the electrodes, our obtained values of the transmission coefficients are somewhat different from those reported in Ref.. In particular, we used atomic electrodes with full band structure while Ref. used jellium electrodes having one parabola band. Nevertheless, the even-odd oscillatory behavior was qualitatively the same.
