Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we developed an efficient method to employ large-scale first-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) using the multisite method, which enables us to perform large-scale DFT calculations with accurate local basis sets. The subroutines to calculate the free energy profiles with the large-scale FPMD simulations were also implemented to our linear-scaling DFT code CONQUEST. The developed methods were applied to the theoretical studies on various systems, such as nonperiodic amorphous systems, anti-cancer drug molecules in water, complex domain structures of a ferroelectric material and so on. The program CONQUEST was released to public with the MIT license in 2020 January.
