Adding a new dimension to DFT calculations of solids ...

15th WIEN2k - W O R K S H O P

L/APW+lo calculations with the WIEN2k code

March 26-29, 2008
Vienna University of Technology, Austria
Chairman: K.Schwarz (TU Wien)

Announcement

This workshop is aimed at anyone who wants to learn how density functional calculations can be done for solids using the "(full-potential) Augmented Plane Wave and local orbitals" method (L/APW+lo) as embodied in the WIEN2k code. Presently this code is used by more than 1200 groups worldwide. The workshop targets on both, the new and unexperienced user who wants to get familiar with WIEN2k, as well as the experienced user who wants to hear more about some advanced topics and can present his own results.

For more information on WIEN2k see the WIEN2k Homepage

Topics of the workshop

  • Part I (mainly for new users): 26. and 27. March
    • Introduction to density functional theory
    • Introduction to the APW method, the local orbitals and the linearization
    • Concepts of APW+lo in WIEN2k
    • Use of the web-based graphical user interface (w2web)
    • "Hands-on" calculations with the WIEN2k code
  • Part II (also for experienced researchers): 28. and 29. March
    • Advanced topics and new features in WIEN2k (non-linear optics, non-collinear magnetism, phonons, beyond DFT ... )
    • Results obtained by WIEN2k and related topics (contributions by participants)
    • Poster session
    • discussions and exchange of experience between users and developers

Here you can see the detailed Program.
