Hi Houyang,
PDB is an abbreviation for "protein data bank", therefore this file
format is employed for proteins and, more generally for
biomacromolecules. Apparently you want to study a carbon nanotube.
This compound is not directly parametrized on amber and this is why
you could not directly used your input file.
I already used amber molecular dynamics simulations for a molecule
with a C60 moiety. I made the parametrisation with gaussian
calculations and antechamber, and also other tricks to give the
correct atom types and parameters. You might find inspiration on the
tutorials.
Moreover, when I tried to open your pdb file on vmd it appears that
the z coordinates are badly placed (the molecule is on the same
plane). I think you will have to check if the coordinates are correct.
Regards,
Florent Barbault
