I am using Quantum Espresso for Oxide heterostructure calculation. I want to include Dangling bonds in the calculations? Can anyone please help me?

Dear Sanchari

dangling bonds appear at the surface of a given material. Thus, in the caclulation of surface properties thay directly considered in the structure unless there is a passivation of these dangling bonds.
