|
|
CP2K is a quantum chemistry and solid state physics software package that can perform atomistic
|
|
simulations of solid state, liquid, molecular, periodic, material, crystal, and biological systems.
|
|
CP2K provides a general framework for different modeling methods such as DFT using the mixed
|
|
Gaussian and plane waves approaches GPW and GAPW. Supported theory levels include DFT, MP2, RPA, GW,
|
|
tight-binding (xTB, DFTB), semi-empirical methods (AM1, PM3, PM6, RM1, MNDO, ...), and classical
|
|
force fields (AMBER, CHARMM, ...). CP2K can do simulations of molecular dynamics, metadynamics,
|
|
Monte Carlo, Ehrenfest dynamics, vibrational analysis, core level spectroscopy, energy minimization,
|
|
and transition state optimization using NEB or dimer method.
|
|
|
|
CP2K is written in Fortran 2008 and can be run efficiently in parallel using a combination of
|
|
multi-threading, MPI, and GPU acceleration (CUDA for NVIDIA GPUs, HIP/ROCm for AMD GPUs, and
|
|
OpenCL).

|
|
## Downloading CP2K source code
|
|
|
|
To clone the current master (development version):
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
git clone https://github.com/cp2k/cp2k.git cp2k
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To clone a release version v*x.y*:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
git clone -b support/vx.y --recursive https://github.com/cp2k/cp2k.git cp2k
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
