Hello,

I am trying to run simulation of graphene oxide.  I have 16 carbon atoms
of same type. I am using opls force field.  could make the .itp file and
pasted here

My question how can I step for the parameters ffoplsaa.rtp file. I made
the parameters as follow

I am geting trouble to create .top file using pdb2gmx.

Can you tell how to set up force field parameter for graphene.

I am usinng Gromacs  VERSION 4.0.7.

Thanks

Nilesh
