Dear Rakesh,

the ENVIRON libraray can do that:
http://www.quantum-environ.org

Note that interesting and important effects could come from the 
interface states of the perovskites, though, and so a continuum model 
might not be enough - it also depends if you care about the interface 
with a liquid, or with a solid.
