I want to simulate a ligand containing Silicon atoms ( present in the aromatic form as well). I wanted to ask if anybody could let me know the presence of silicon atom types in Charmm36 ff?
I have added a link of a paper with water-silica forcefield in CHARMM.

I think it might be OK. But if you still need more accurate value, you can use VMD Force Field toolkit plugin for parameterization. Since you mentioned silicon is present in an aromatic form, most probably parameterization might be better.
