Hi, I’m using the software Avogadro recently and i have some doubts about the parameter that the software uses for calculations. My attention is focused primarily on the GaN molecule and the two crystalline phases that it presents, hexagonal and cubic. When creating a molecule, the number of chemical bonds to each of Ga atom and N is three (or coordination number three), but is expected four. The possibility of creating a molecule with atoms of Ga and N making four chemical bonds exists, as well as the possibility of performing the calculations of geometry optimization, but when the molecule is saved and open on another occasion in the program this presents again only 3 chemical bonds.
I would like to know if the parameters used in determining the number of chemical bonds can be modified. If there is this possibility, I would like to know how to perform these modifications. Also, I wonder if there is a possibility of adding other force fields in the software for the calculations in addition to those already in software.
