This repository holds two different sets of OPLS-AA parameters for use in ionic liquid simulations.
1) Unscaled and 0.8 scaled OPLS-AA force field parameters (2009IL). Please see the following references for technical details:
2) Virtual site OPLS-AA force field parameters (VSIL). Please see the following reference for technical details:
IMPORTANT: The 2009IL and VSIL parameters should NOT be mixed! VSIL anion parameters were specifically parameterized to work exclusively with the virtual site cations.
- Gromacs 5.0.7
- Tested with CUDA 7.5/8.0 and on CentOS 6.5/7.0
- Heat capacity DoS calculations (g_dos) requires Gromacs 5.1.4 due to a known bug in version 5.0.7

A brief tutorial is provided in the Tutorial_[BMIM][BF4] directory. A README file will guide the user through the contruction of a [BMIM][BF4] box composed of 500 ion pairs using the OPLS-2009IL parameter set. GROMACS input files are provided to run a 40 ns MD simulation and output files are also provided for comparison. The user is guided on how to compute both the density and the heat of vaporization for the ionic liquid system.
