because I would like to do QM/MM simulations of the Al2O3(0001) surface
in contact with liquid water. To be more precise, what I'd like to do is
to treat the oxide surface and some H2O molecules on a DFT level and
then treating the rest of H2O molecules using a force field. The
question I'm asking is related to the possibility to use
non-orthorhombic unit cells (i.e. hexagonal) for the QM/MM calculations.
In other discussions I've read that such simulations are designed only
for orthorhombic ones but I was wondering if the QM part could be
adjusted in a different symmetry with respect to the total cell.<br><br></div>Thank you very much in advance for any help.<br><br></div>Best regards,<br><br></div>Giacomo Melani<br><br></div>Institut für Chemie, Universität Potsdam</div></blockquote></div></div></blockquote></div>
