A tool for generating wavevector paths in band calculations of solids. It identifies high-symmetry points in reciprocal space based on the symmetry of the crystal and provides a standardized “path” connecting them. It supports various crystal structure formats (such as POSCAR and CIF) and is compatible with many electronic structure calculation software (e.g., VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, ABINIT). A web-based interface is also available.
A Boltzmann transport equation solver for calculating lattice thermal conductivity based on phonon information obtained from first-principles calculations. It takes into account three-phonon interactions and enables first-principles analysis of thermal transport properties in solids, including anisotropic crystals, complex structures, and those containing defects. Tutorials and input-support tools are also provided. A tool for calculating third-order force constants (thirdorder.py) is also available on the same website.
A python tool for generating symmetry-inequivalent supercell structures from a CIF file containing site occupancy information. SHRY can be used as a command-line tool as well as a module in a python script.
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.
Software package to implement Behler-Parinello neural network potentials. Potentials can be trained from structure-energy/ interatomic forces/stress data, and molecular dynamics calculations using LAMMPS can also be performed using learned potentials. A prediction uncertainty measure can also be calculated simultaneously.
Open source software for massively parallel quantum chemistry calculations. Energies and geometries of nano-sized molecules can be calculated without fragmentation. The program supports Hartree-Fock, density functional theory, and second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory calculations. The input format, execution method, and program structure are simple, and frequently used routines can be easily extracted.
An open-source application for simulation of low-dimensional interacting electron models based on density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG). For effective models of one-dimensional quantum systems and impurity systems, this application can treat not only physical quantities of ground states but also time evolution and finite-temperature physical quantities. The program is coded in C++, and can be called from MATLAB scripts.
A Python package and graphical user interface for extracting structural order in materials. From atomic structure data, it can extract various structural features such as polyhedra, rings, and cavities. It can also be used to calculate pair distribution functions and angular distributions, as well as structure factors obtained from neutron diffraction and X-ray diffraction.
A library related to the symmetry of crystal structures. By providing a crystal structure, Spglib can detect information related to the symmetry of the structure, such as symmetry operations, a space group and a primitive cell. It can also generate irreducible wave numbers. Spglib is written in C, but various interfaces are available, including Python, Fortran, and Rust.
Server for computing exact ground state of Ising model with random interacitons (Ising spin glasses). Users can specify the distributions of the interactions and the geometry of lattices. By inputting the informaiont of the model, users will receive the computational results by e-mail from the server.
