Hi,

You have to do slab calculation to simulate a thin film. There are many
examples involving slabs in QE. But you have to create the slab by yourself
using the optimized bulk structure. First you have to decide the direction
in which you want to cleave the bulk then with the help of visualization
tool like XCrysden, you can create the slab.
