At CINaM together with Andres Saul and Hans-christian Weissker we are organizing a series of lectures on DFT and the Quantum Espresso code. The course will cover standard DFT, functionals, psedo-potentials, surfaces, STM images, structure optimization,  etc..

Teaching material and lecture notes can be downloaded here:

• • DFT and Quantum Espresso 1

• • DFT and Quantum Espresso 2

• • Quantum Espresso Tutorials  by Paolo Giannozzi

• • DFT for beginners  by Fabio Finocchi
  • A primer in DFT

• • How To Do Simple Calculations with Quantum ESPRESSO by Shobhana NarasimhanYou

Note that you can run all QuantumEspresso tutorials using MaterialApps Live! on you PC.
