Exciting
About Exciting
exciting is a full-potential all-electron density-functional-theory (DFT) package implementing the families of linearized augmented planewave (LAPW) methods. It can be applied to all kinds of materials, irrespective of the atomic species involved, and also allows for exploring the physics of core electrons. A particular focus are excited states within many-body perturbation theory (MBPT).
- Includes TDDFT, BSE, TDDFT with BSE-derived XC kernel
Includes G0W0
q-dep. TDDFT (not supported if spin orbit coupling is switched on)
