q-e-logo

This is the distribution of the Quantum ESPRESSO suite of codes (ESPRESSO: opEn-Source Package for Research in Electronic Structure, Simulation, and Optimization)

License: GPL v2

USAGE

Quick installation instructions for CPU-based machines. For GPU execution, see file README_GPU.md. Go to the directory where this file is.

Using "make" ([] means "optional"):

./configure [options]
make all

"make" alone prints a list of acceptable targets. Optionally, make -jN runs parallel compilation on N processors. Link to binaries are found in bin/.

Using "CMake" (v.3.14 or later):

mkdir ./build
cd ./build
cmake -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=mpif90 -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=mpicc [-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/install] ..
make [-jN]
[make install]

Although CMake has the capability to guess compilers, it is strongly recommended to specify the intended compilers or MPI compiler wrappers as CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER and CMAKE_C_COMPILER. "make" builds all targets. Link to binaries are found in build/bin. If make install is invoked, directory CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is prepended onto all install directories.

For more information, see the general documentation in directory Doc/, package-specific documentation in */Doc/, and the web site http://www.quantum-espresso.org/. Technical documentation for users and developers can be found on Wiki page on gitlab.

PACKAGES

  • PWscf: structural optimisation and molecular dynamics on the electronic ground state, with self-consistent solution of DFT equations;
  • CP: Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics;
  • PHonon: vibrational and dielectric properties from DFPT (Density-Functional Perturbation Theory);
  • TD-DFPT: spectra from Time-dependent DFPT;
  • HP: calculation of Hubbard parameters from DFPT;
  • EPW: calculation of electron-phonon coefficients, carrier transport, phonon-limited superconductivity and phonon-assisted optical processes;
  • PWCOND: ballistic transport;
  • XSpectra: calculation of X-ray absorption spectra;
  • PWneb: reaction pathways and transition states with the Nudged Elastic Band method;
  • GWL: many-body perturbation theory in the GW approach using ultra-localised Wannier functions and Lanczos chains;
  • QEHeat: energy current in insulators for thermal transport calculations in DFT.
  • KCW: Koopmans-compliant functionals in a Wannier representation

Modular libraries

The following libraries have been isolated and partially encapsulated in view of their release for usage in other codes as well:

  • UtilXlib: performing basic MPI handling, error handling, timing handling.
  • FFTXlib: parallel (MPI and OpenMP) distributed three-dimensional FFTs, performing also load-balanced distribution of data (plane waves, G-vectors and real-space grids) across processors.
  • LAXlib: parallel distributed dense-matrix diagonalization, using ELPA, SCALapack, or a custom algorithm.
  • KS Solvers: parallel iterative diagonalization for the Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian (represented as an operator),using block Davidson and band-by-band or block Conjugate-Gradient algorithms.
  • LRlib: performs a variety of tasks connected with (time-dependent) DFPT, to be used also in connection with Many-Body Perturbation Theory.
  • upflib: pseudopotential-related code.
  • devXlib: low-level utilities for GPU execution
