It computes electronic states and various physical properties efficiently with high precision for a wide range of physical systems. It provides geometry optimization, electronic states in a static magnetic field, permittivity distribution at the atomic-scale, energy and stress distribution, positron annihilation parameters, and so forth.
STATE is a first-principles plane-wave pseudo-potential code. It provides electronic state calculations and molecular dynamics simulations. This code is suitable for simulating chemical reactions at solid surfaces and solid–liquid interfaces, i.e., It is able to investigate reaction paths and activation barriers of chemical processes at interfaces. It can also include Van der Waals corrections to conventional density functional theory.
Software package that implements moment tensor potentials. Potentials can be trained and used for molecular dynamics calculations using LAMMPS. Active learning combined with molecular dynamics calculations is also available.
An application for molecular science simulation. This application covers not only traditional simulation methods implemented in existing applications but also a number of novel methods for quantum chemical calculation. It can perform ab-initio electronic state calculation for a few thousands atoms/molecules as well as trace calculation of transition states in chemical reaction for a few hundreds atoms/molecules. It can also perform high-efficient massively parallel computing on large-scale parallel computers such as the K-computer.
An application for DFTB (Density Functional Tight Binding) calculation combined with Divide-and-Conquer (DC) method. The DC-DFTB-K program enables geometry optimization and molecular dynamics simulation of large molecular systems with linear-scaling computational cost. DFTB electronic structure calculation of 1 million atom system has been demonstrated using MPI/OpenMP hybrid parallel computation on the K computer.
An application for ab initio quantum chemical calculation. This application performs electronic structure calculation of molecules by the Hartree-Fock, density functional, the many-body perturbation, configuration interaction theories, and so on. While this application is a derivative of GAMESS-US for specific use of Intel compatible CPU, it does not include recently developed calculation methods such as the CC and FMO methods.
A benchmark framework for evaluating general-purpose, i.e., universal, machine learning potentials, along with a leaderboard based on those evaluations. Rankings are determined by a comprehensive assessment that considers the accuracy of predicted formation energy of materials, structural relaxation, and thermal conductivity. Recently, in addition to public research institutions such as universities, major companies like Meta, Microsoft, and Google have also joined the development of universal potentials, taking top positions on the leaderboard.
An open-source application for semi-empirical quantum chemical calculation based on NDDO (neglect of diatomic differential overlap) approximation. This program calculates, for a given molecule or a crystal, molecular orbits and atomic forces, as well as vibration spectra, thermal quantities (heat of formation etc.), isotopic exchange effect, force constant, and so on. It can also treat radicals and ions.
Application for performing first-principles simulations with an implicit solvent model. The code is released as a patch to VASP. The user can perform molecular dynamics as well as reaction analysis using e.g., nudged elastic band method.
