LITESOPH

Layer Integrated Toolkit and Engine for Simulations of Photo-induced phenomena

About LITESOPH

The LITESOPH project is aimed at developing a comprehensive toolkit to launch, monitor, manage and analyse large-scale simulations of photo-induced phenomena in a high-performance computing (HPC) environment. It is designed to serve the needs of computational researchers interested in solar energy conversion applications (photovoltaics, water-splitting catalysts, solar fuels, etc.), opto-electronic materials, photochemistry and photobiology. The toolkit consists of several Python-based layers driven by popular and open-source TDDFT codes like OCTOPUS, GPAW and NWChem.

The project is currently funded by MeitY through the National Supercomputing Mission's "Applications for Materials and Computational Chemistry" initiative.

Current Features

1. Ground-state DFT calculations in FD, as well as numerical atomic orbital and gaussian bases.

2. Propagation TDDFT based spectrum calculator.

3. Kohn-Sham decomposition tools.

4. Laser design tools

5. Laser-driven simulation engines
