RSPACE is a first-principles code package based on a real-space finite-difference pseudo-potential method. It computes electronic states with high-speed and high precision in aperiodic systems of surfaces, solid interfaces, clusters, nanostructures, and so forth. It provides large-scale computing for semiconductor devices of nanostructure surface and interface reactions, calculation of transport properties in semi-infinite boundary conditions, and a massively parallel computing using the space partitioning method.
An open-source application for ab initio quantum chemical calculation. This application performs electronic structure calculation of molecules by the Hartree-Fock, density functional, many-body perturbation, configuration interaction theories, and so on. Even though this application is freeware, it succeeds in maintaining high-quality and high-performance codes by active development, and has a number of world-wide users. It histrically shares core programs with GAMESS-UK.
RSDFT is an ab-initio program with the real-space difference method and a pseudo-potential method. Using density functional theory (DFT), this calculates electronic states in a vast range of physical systems: crystals, interfaces, molecules, etc. RSDFT is suitable for highly parallel computing because it does not need the fast Fourier transformation. By using the K-computer, this program can calculate the electronic states of around 100,000 atoms. The Gordon Bell Prize for Peak-Performance was awarded to RSDFT in 2011.
RESPACK is a first-principles calculation software for evaluating the interaction parameters of materials. It is able to calculate the maximally localized Wannier functions, the RPA response functions, and frequency-dependent electronic interaction parameters. RESPACK receives its input data from a band calculation using norm-conserving pseudopotentials with plane-wave basis sets. Utilities which convert a result of xTAPP or Quantum ESPRESSO to an input for RESPACK are prepared. The software has been used successfully for a wide range of materials such as metals, semiconductors, transition-metal compounds, and organic compounds. It supports OpenMP / MPI parallelization.
An open-source application for first-principles molecular dynamics based on a pseudopotential method using plane bases. This application can perform electronic-state calculation and molecular dynamics employing the Car-Parrinello method. It implements MPI parallelization, which enables us to perform efficient parallel computing in various environments including large-scale parallel computers. The program is written in C++, and is distributed in source form under the GPL license.
Photo-excited electron dynamics simulator based on time-dependent density functional theory using real-time, real-space grids. It can perform calculations of linear photo-response and nonlinear photo-response to pulse radiation in a variety of systems including isolated systems, periodic systems, interfaces/surfaces, etc. It can perform massively parallel calculations in systems consisting of thousands of atoms, and it can also perform multiscale simulation of electron-electromagnetic field-coupled dynamics.
An interface tool for combining first-principles calculation based on density functional theory (DFT) and TRIQS, the application for dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). By combining Wien2k and TRIQS, self-consistent DFT+DMFT calculation can be realized by this tool. One-shot DFT+DMFT calculation using band structures obtained by other first-principles applications is also possible.
An open-source application for first-principles calculation utilizing pseudo-potentials and atom-localized basis sets. This application is capable of performing electronic structure calculations, structural relaxation, and molecular dynamics in a wide range of systems based on density functional theory. By adopting atom-localized basis sets, it realizes high-speed electronic calculation and linear-scaling in suitable computer systems. It can also perform electronic conductance calculations based on non-equilibrium Green’s function method.
First-principles software based on plane-wave basis and norm-conserving pseudopotential methods. Time-dependent DFT has been implemented. Users can perform real-time simulations for electron-ion dynamics under a time-dependent external field. Pseudopotentials with FPSEID21 format should be used, and those are downloadable from the website.
