Advance / PHASE is software for first-principles calculation based on the density functional theory by using plane-wave basis and pseudopotentials. Since the electronic state is obtained based on quantum mechanics, highly accurate results can be obtained. It can be expected not only to analyze existing materials but also to design various metals, insulators, semiconductors, magnetic materials, dielectric materials, piezoelectric materials, and various other new materials.
An application for first-principles calculation based on density functional theory. This application is included in Material Sudio, and can evaluate electronic states and properties of various physical systems such as molecules, atomic clusters, crystals, and solid surfaces based on the all-electron method and the pseudopotential method. It can also be applied to evaluation of the chemical reaction such as catalysis and combustion reaction, and is optimized for large-scale parallel computing.
