Overview
This section covers the Ding-Andersen germanium parameters as they are implemented into the towhee_ff_Ding1986 file in the ForceFields directory.
All of the Towhee atom types for this force field are listed, along with a short description of their meanings.
This force field was intended for solid germanium.
It uses the Stillinger-Weber potential type.
Any discrepencies (especially typos) from the published values are the sole responsibility of Marcus Martin,
and I welcome feedback on how this implementation compares with other programs.
