CONQUEST

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

CONQUEST is a linear-scaling DFT (Density Functional Theory) code based on the density matrix minimization method. Since its computational cost, for both memory and computational costs, is only proportional to the number of atoms N of the target systems, the code can employ structure optimization or molecular dynamics on very large-scale systems, including more than hundreds of thousands of atoms. It also has high parallel efficiency and is suitable for massively parallel calculations.

MOPAC

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

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.

FPLO

  • Level of openness 0 ☆☆☆
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

An application for first-principles calculation based on the all-electron method with localized bases. Compared with the standard all-electron method (the full-potential LAPW method), this application uses a less number of bases keeping accuracy of calculation, and realize high-speed electronic state calculation by the density functional method. This application also supports calculation for disordered structures by coherent potential approximation (CPA), relativistic effect, and the LSDA+U method.
