Task

Generating liquid Si by melting of the crystalline structure via molecular dynamics.

Input

POSCAR

  • We start this example by making a POSCAR using the conventional unit cell with 8 atoms which should look like this:

  • We obtain a sufficiently large supercell (2x2x2 containing 64 atoms) by following the description in: Preparing a Super Cell.
  • The new POSCAR file of the two 2x2x2 super cell of the conventional cell should look like this:
