.. _Exercises: Exercises ==================== Getting started --------------- Welcome to SALMON Exercises! In these exercises, we explain the use of SALMON from the very beginning, taking a few samples that cover applications of SALMON in several directions. We assume that you are in the computational environment of UNIX/Linux OS. First you need to download and install SALMON in your computational environment. If you have not yet done it, do it following the instruction, `download `_ and :any:`install-and-run`. As described in :any:`install-and-run`, you are required to prepare at least an input file and pseudopotential files to run SALMON. In the following, we present input files for several sample calculations and provide a brief explanation of the input keywords that appear in the input files. You may modify the input files to execute for your own calculations. Pseudopotential files of elements that appear in the samples are also attached. We also present explanations of main output files. We present 10 exercises. First 3 exercises (Exercise-1 ~ 3) are for an isolated molecule, acetylene C2H2. If you are interested in learning electron dynamics calculations in isolated systems, please look into these exercises. In SALMON, we usually calculate the ground state solution first. This is illustrated in :any:`Exercise-1 `. After finishing the ground state calculation, two exercises of electron dynamics calculations are prepared. :any:`Exercise-2 ` illustrates the calculation of linear optical responses in real time, obtaining polarizability and photoabsorption of the molecule. :any:`Exercise-3 ` illustrates the calculation of electron dynamics in the molecule under a pulsed electric field. Next 3 exercises (Exercise-4 ~ 6) are for a crystalline solid, silicon. If you are interested in learning electron dynamics calculations in extended periodic systems, please look into these exercises. :any:`Exercise-4 ` illustrates the ground state solution of the crystalline silicon. :any:`Exercise-5 ` illustrates the calculation of linear response properties of the crystalline silicon to obtain the dielectric function. :any:`Exercise-6 ` illustrates the calculation of electron dynamics in the crystalline silicon induced by a pulsed electric field. Exercise-7 is for an irradiation and a propagation of a pulsed light in a bulk silicon, coupling Maxwell equations for the electromagnetic fields of the pulsed light and the electron dynamics in the unit cells. This calculation is quite time-consuming and is recommended to execute using massively parallel supercomputers. :any:`Exercise-7 ` illustrates the calculation of a pulsed, linearly polarized light irradiating normally on a surface of a bulk silicon. Next 2 exercises (Exercise-8 ~ 9) are for geometry optimization and Ehrenfest molecular dynamics based on the TDDFT method for an isolated molecule, acetylene C2H2. :any:`Exercise-8 ` illustrates the geometry optimization in the ground state. :any:`Exercise-9 ` illustrates the Ehrenfest molecular dynamics under the pulsed electric field. Exercise-10 are for an metallic nanosphere described by dielectric function. The calculation method is the Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD). :any:`Exercise-10 ` illustrates the electromagnetic analysis of the metallic nanosphere under a pulsed electric field. C2H2 (isolated molecules) ------------------------- .. _exercise-1: Exercise-1: Ground state of C2H2 molecule ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this exercise, we learn the calculation of the ground state of acetylene (C2H2) molecule, solving the static Kohn-Sham equation. This exercise will be useful to learn how to set up calculations in SALMON for any isolated systems such as molecules and nanoparticles.

The linear response calculation provides the polarizability and the oscillator strength distribution of the molecule. This exercise should be carried out after finishing the ground state calculation that was explained in :any:`Exercise-1 `. In the calculation, an impulsive perturbation is applied to all electrons in the C2H2 molecule along the molecular axis which we take *z* axis. Then a time evolution calculation is carried out without any external fields. During the calculation, the electric dipole moment is monitored. After the time evolution calculation, a time-frequency Fourier transformation is carried out for the electric dipole moment to obtain the frequency-dependent polarizability. The imaginary part of the frequency-dependent polarizability is proportional to the oscillator strength distribution and the photoabsorption cross section. .. _input-files-1: Input files ^^^^^^^^^^^ To run the code, the input file *C2H2_rt_response.inp* that contains input keywords and their values for the linear response calculation is required. The directory *restart* that is created in the ground state calculation as *data_for_restart* and pseudopotential files are also required. The pseudopotential files should be the same as those used in the ground state calculation.

An impulsive perturbation is applied to all electrons in the unit cell along *z* direction. Since the dielectric function is isotropic in the diamond structure, calculated dielectric function should not depend on the direction of the perturbation. During the time evolution, electric current averaged over the unit cell volume is calculated. A time-frequency Fourier transformation of the electric current gives us a frequency-dependent conductivity.

FDTD simulation(electromagnetic analysis) --------------- .. _exercise-10: Exercise-10: Pulsed electric field response of a metallic nanosphere in classical electromagnetism(FDTD simulation) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this exercise, we learn the pulsed electric field response in the metallic nanosphere, solving the time-dependent Maxwell equations. As outputs of the calculation, the time response of the electromagnetic field is calculated. A pulsed electric field that has cos^2 envelope shape is applied. The parameters that characterize the pulsed field such as magnitude, frequency, polarization direction, and carrier envelope phase are specified in the input file. Input files ^^^^^^^^^^^ To run the code, the input file *classicEM_rt_pulse.inp* that contains input keywords and their values for the pulsed electric field calculation is required. The shape file of the metallic nanosphere *shape.cube* is also required. The shape file can be generated by program ``FDTD_make_shape`` in SALMON utilities: https://salmon-tddft.jp/utilities.html 'shape.inp' is an input file for 'FDTD_make_shape' to generate 'shape.cube'.

Output files ^^^^^^^^^^^^ After the calculation, following output files are created in the directory ``'result'``, +-------------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | file name | description | +-------------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | *obs0_info.data* | information to generate animation | +-------------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | *obs1_at_point_rt.data* | components of | | | electric and magnetic fields | | | as functions of time | +-------------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | You may download the above files (zipped file) from: | https://salmon-tddft.jp/webmanual/v_2_0_0/exercise_zip_files/10_classicEM_rt.zip Explanations of the files are described below: **obs0_info.data** This file is used to generate animation files by using SALMON utilities: https://salmon-tddft.jp/utilities.html **obs1_at_point_rt.data** Results of time evolution calculation for electric and magnetic fields at observation point 1. :: # Real time calculation: # E: Electric field # H: Magnetic field # 1:Time[fs] 2:E_x[V/Angstrom] 3:E_y[V/Angstrom] 4:E_z[V/Angstrom] 5:H_x[A/Angstrom] 6:H_y[A/Angstrom] 7:H_z[A/Angstrom]
