Hello,
I have a problem of surface defect in MgO. This is ionic with rocksalt
structure. In a supercell calculation one has a real surface and an
artificial surface that should mimic the bulk material. ?Are there
dangling bonds in the bulk-like surface? Must they be saturated with a
pseudo hidrogen (with charge one, at wich distance) ?
Thanks
