A group of applications that perform molecular dynamics, hybrid quantum/classical mechanical simulation, search of chemical reaction path by the nudged elastic band method, and potential parameter fitting. The molecular dynamics code includes interatomic potentials for several metals and semiconductors, and is capable of parallel computation based of spatial decomposition.
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.
A program for generating maximally-localized Wannier functions from results of first-principles calculation. This program supports Quantum Espresso, abinit, SIESTA, FLEUR, Wien2k, and VASP. It can also calculate electrical conductivity and material properties related to the berry phase from the obtained MLWFs.
A python library for pre- and post-processing of first-principles electronic structure calculations. As a pre-processing tool, it can automatically generate k-point pathways for first-principles calculations of band structures based on the crystal symmetry. It can also post-process first-principles calculation results to generate band structure and density of states plots with atomic species and orbital contributions, or visualize spin textures and Fermi surfaces. It also provides a functionality for band unfolding.
An electronic state solver distributed with GAMESS, the quantum chemical (QM) calculation software. Combining energy density analysis and Divide-and-Conquer (DC) method, accurate QM calculation with electronic correlation is solved in a short time. Highly accurate QM calculations for many-atom/nano-scale material can be solved when run on a high performance super computer.
This application can produce input files of various applications for density functional theory (DFT) calculations via user-friendly parameter adjustment using three-dimensional computer graphics (3DCG) and graphical user interfaces (GUI). Input-file conversion between different 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.
OCTA is an integrated simulation system for soft materials developed by the joint project of industry and academia funded by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry(METI), Japan. OCTA consists of four simulation engines named COGNAC(Molecular dynamics simulation), PASTA(rheology simulation), SUSHI(mean field theory), MUFFIN(continuum theory) and a simulation platform (GOURMET).
An open-source program package for numerical diagonalization based on the Lanczos method, specialized for spin chains with unit spin magnitude, S=1. This package, which uses another open-source program package, TITPACK, calculates eigenenergies and eigenvectors of ground states and low-lying excited states of spin chains with finite length. By the subspace partitioning method, both memory and cpu-time requirements are considerably reduced.
An application for first-principles calculation based on the all-electron method. This application implements not only normal electronic state calculation (band calculation) but also a quasi-particle GW method for self-consistent (or one-shot) calculation of excitation spectrum and quasi-particle band. Combining with dynamical mean-field theory, self-consistent calculation including many-body effect can also be performed.
