Superconducting Toolkit (sctk)

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 3 ★★★

An open-source application for evaluating superconducting gaps from resutls of the first-principles calculation by Quantum ESPRESSO. By calculating electron-phonon interaction and screened Coulomb interaction from the first-principles calculation, superconducting gaps can be obtained from the gap equation. Quasiparticle densities of states and ultrasonic attenuation rates can also be calculated.

FDMNES

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 3 ★★★

An application for first-principles calculation based on density functional theory (DFT) optimized for X-ray spectroscopy analysis. Theoretical prediction and data fitting for X-ray spectroscopy such as XANES(X-ray absorption fine structure), XMCD(X-ray magnetic circular dichroism), RXD(resonant X-ray diffraction) can be preformes. This application employs a fully relativistic LSDA calculation based on the finite element method, and also supports the LDA+U method and the TD-DFT calculation.

CLUPAN

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 3 ★★★

Program libraries for alloy modeling analysis using a cluster expansion method. Energy of alloy systems evaluated by other electronic state calculation libraries is used as an input, and atomic configuration effects are evaluated with the accuracy of a first principles calculation. Ground state structures, evaluation of thermodynamic quantities, equilibrium diagrams, disordering by temperature, etc. can be calculated with high accuracy.

Calypso

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

An application for prediction of stable and metastable structures from a chemical composition. This application applies particle swarm optimization to predict material structures from results of the first-principles calculation by external packages (VASP, CASTEP, Quantum Espresso, GULP, SIESTA, CP2k). It has been applied to predict not only three-dimensional crystal structures, but also those of clusters and surfaces.
