<div dir="ltr">One comment (a pet peeve). Not to be harsh about these tools, but if you are looking at an oxide it is very unlikely that anything you generate with a simple tool such as any of these methods will be close to reality. Even with semiconductors this is often not the case, as is well established for Si and the III-V compounds. I suggest looking at the experimental literature first before doing surface GIGO, of which there is alas rather a lot at the moment.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jul 6, 2015 at 10:55 AM, Oleg Rubel <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:orubel@lakeheadu.ca" target="_blank">orubel@lakeheadu.ca</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">There are two possibilities: use structure editor (an octave tool, which is a part of Wien2k) or VESTA package.

Once you have the surface, layers can be removed manually to achieve a desired termination. If the material is an insulator, the surface terminated with one type of atoms may be metallic and not stable; it will undergo a surface reconstruction.<br>
<br>
I hope it will help<br>
