Journal ArticleDOI

The SIESTA method for ab initio order-N materials simulation

TL;DR: In this paper, a selfconsistent density functional method using standard norm-conserving pseudopotentials and a flexible, numerical linear combination of atomic orbitals basis set, which includes multiple-zeta and polarization orbitals, was developed and implemented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-consistent order- N density-functional calculations for very large systems

TL;DR: A method to perform fully self-consistent density-functional calculations that scales linearly with the system size and which is well suited for very large systems is presented, using strictly localized pseudoatomic orbitals as basis functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Density-functional method for very large systems with LCAO basis sets

TL;DR: In this article, a linear scaling, fully self-consistent density-functional method for performing first-principles calculations on systems with a large number of atoms, using standard norm-conserving pseudopotentials and flexible linear combinations of atomic orbitals (LCAO) basis sets, was implemented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient implementation of a van der Waals density functional: application to double-wall carbon nanotubes.

TL;DR: This work presents an efficient implementation of the van der Waals density functional, which expresses the nonlocal correlation energy as a double spatial integral, and applies the method to calculate the binding energies and the barriers for relative translation and rotation in double-wall carbon nanotubes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linear-scaling ab-initio calculations for large and complex systems

TL;DR: A brief review of the Siesta project is presented in the context of linear-scaling density-functional methods for electronic-structure calculations and molecular-dynamics simulations of systems with a large number of atoms as discussed by the authors.
