Hi Sarah,
You can do it using Lammps or Quantum Wise. Quantum Wise has this
example using cristobalite. The tutorial is here
http://quantumwise.com/publications/tutorials/item/845-generating-amorphous-structures
You can try the trial license. ;)
cheers

Thanks for your response, Layla. I don't know about this
process; can you please direct me to an example or some
literature that would describe it in detail? Is there QE code
anywhere that I can reference?
Thanks!

Dear Sarah, you can also use a cristobalite supercell and
make molecular dynamics at high temperature to obtain a
liquid and then quench it.

Dear All,
I am trying to simulate amorphous SiO2. If I am
correct, it structures as tetrahedral arrangements
wherein all the tetrahedra are connected, but have
random orientations. So, what I am envisioning to do
is create a supercell of about 20 tetrahedra, and
orient these 20 based on a Monte Carlo method. Is this
the correct way to simulate the amorphous SiO2? And if
it is, are there any suggestions for how to use a
Monte Carlo method to find the atomic positions?
I'd appreciate any feed back.
Thanks,
Sarah
