Hello fellow researchers,

I want to use quartz crystal along with some other systems for MD simulation but I really want a Tetragonal system (alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degree). Quartz has gamma = 120 degree which makes it difficult to use it in my system. Also it is quite slow in a simulation to have a non orthogonal system. I know people used to cut it such a way so that the periodicity is maintained and also stoichiometry is balanced. Is there any tool to do this easily? Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

Mohammad
