Dear Prof. David van der Spoel,

Thank you very much for your helpful response. I am sorry for further
asking.
I tried to field information during the MD using -field option. It gave me
*****************************
@    title "Applied electric field"
@    xaxis  label "Time (ps)"
@    yaxis  label "E (V/nm)"
@TYPE xy
         0         0.5           0           0
     0.001    0.412668           0           0
********************************

Then,
gmx potential gave the field.xvg file?
This filed.xvg contains box and field.
*********************************
@    title "Electric Field"
@    xaxis  label "Box (nm)"
@    yaxis  label "Field (V/nm)"
                   0                        0
   1.065423250198364        0.199576498258186
   2.130846500396729       0.2431408787146726
   3.196269750595093       0.1159880973735597
*************************************

Do you mean this field.xvg output?
I am sorry again.


Best regards,

Mijiddorj

Why don't you try to play around and check the output file field.xvg to
see what frequency you get?
