You can use the Interace Builder in VNL to create the interface and then export the pwscf input file: http://docs.quantumwise.com/tutorials/interfaces.html

    Dear All,
        I am simulating a Copper-TiO2 interface, and since Copper is
    FCC and TiO2 is tetragonal, I think I need to use ibrav=0. In that
    case, how do I set up the vacuum around the interface?
    Thanks,
    Sarah
