[Wien] Need help to generate unit cell for semiconductor heterostructure

[Laurence Marks]

To generate such a superstructure you need to work out (aided by
experiment) the relevant epitaxial relationship between the two, then
create the appropriate nxm 2D semicoherent interface and extend in the
third direction to a periodic structure.

This is a complex problem in bicrystallography. If you do not understand
the terms above, enter "semi coherent interfaces" into Google and start
reading!
