Journal ArticleDOI

First principles methods using CASTEP

TL;DR: The CASTEP program as mentioned in this paper is a computer program for first principles electro-Nic structure calculations, and some of its features and capabilities are described and near-future development plans outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reproducibility in density functional theory calculations of solids

Kurt Lejaeghere, +79 more
- 25 Mar 2016 - 
TL;DR: A procedure to assess the precision of DFT methods was devised and used to demonstrate reproducibility among many of the most widely used DFT codes, demonstrating that the precisionof DFT implementations can be determined, even in the absence of one absolute reference code.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variational density-functional perturbation theory for dielectrics and lattice dynamics.

TL;DR: In this article, the application of variational density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) to lattice dynamics and dielectric properties is discussed within the plane-wave pseudopotential formalism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Moldy: a portable molecular dynamics simulation program for serial and parallel computers

TL;DR: Moldy is a highly portable C program for performing molecular-dynamics simulations of solids and liquids using periodic boundary conditions and the Ewald method is used to calculate long-ranged electrostatic forces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Density functional theory in the solid state

TL;DR: An overview of the capabilities of solid-state DFT simulations in materials science, high-pressure physics and mineralogy,Solid-state chemistry, and semiconductor physics is presented, illustrated with recent examples using the CASTEP computer program.
