                                                  <div>Dear All,<br>
                                                  </div>
                                                       I am trying to
                                                  simulate amorphous
                                                  SiO2. If I am correct,
                                                  it structures as
                                                  tetrahedral
                                                  arrangements wherein
                                                  all the tetrahedra are
                                                  connected, but have
                                                  random orientations.
                                                  So, what I am
                                                  envisioning to do is
                                                  create a supercell of
                                                  about 20 tetrahedra,
                                                  and orient these 20
                                                  based on a Monte Carlo
                                                  method. Is this the
                                                  correct way to
                                                  simulate the amorphous
                                                  SiO2? And if it is,
                                                  are there any
                                                  suggestions for how to
                                                  use a Monte Carlo
                                                  method to find the
                                                  atomic positions?<br>
                                                </div>
                                                I'd appreciate any feed
                                                back.<br>
                                              </div>
                                              Thanks,<br>
